New Delhi, Jan 27: As the 77th Republic Day was celebrated across the country with displays of military might and cultural heritage, HIAL co-founder and wife of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, Gitanjali J Angmo said it was the first time she did not feel motivated to watch the parade.
Questioning the meaning of Republic Day when rights guaranteed in the Constitution were not being granted, Angmo pointed out that it has been four months since Wangchuk was “unlawfully” arrested. “It is 4 months… 120 days of Sonam Wanghuk’s unlawful and illegal detention! For the first time ever since I can remember, I did not feel motivated to watch the Republic Day parade on TV which my mom and I had never missed,” Angmo said.
