Keylong: Sonam Wangchuk, the noted environmentalist, is leading a 1000 km Leh-Delhi climate march advocating for Ladakh’s inclusion under the Sixth Schedule to protect its unique culture and environment.
On the 10th day, the march reached the Himachal border, with participants enduring freezing mountain passes and crossing icy rivers.
"This is more than just a march—it’s a movement to protect Ladakh from unchecked development and outsider exploitation.", Wangchuk said.
The marchers covered 47 km in 11 hours, determined to bring attention to their cause in Delhi.
The march also seeks to highlight environmental conservation, with slogans like **#SaveLadakh**, **#SaveHimalayas**, and **#SaveThePlanet** gaining momentum.
Wangchuk and his team hope their efforts will inspire the government to protect Ladakh’s delicate ecosystem from potential damage caused by outside influences, advocating for constitutional safeguards under the Sixth Schedule.
