“This is not about promoting or opposing any political party. It is about speaking up for what truly matters—education, the environment, safety, and accountability,” she added.
Bhaker also urged people not to view the matter through a political lens, arguing that students’ concerns deserve attention regardless of political affiliation. She maintained that the focus should remain on protecting the aspirations and well-being of the country’s youth rather than allowing the issue to become a subject of partisan debate.
“These issues affect every one of us, regardless of our beliefs. I take immense pride in representing my country. That is why it is deeply heartbreaking to see the students suffer like this. We owe them more. We owe every child a future where they can learn, grow, and dream without fear,” Bhaker wrote.
Bhaker’s message has added a prominent sporting voice to the conversation, highlighting the need for collective efforts to safeguard students’ interests and restore confidence in the examination process.
Team Analysis
On Saturday, Indian activist and educationist Sonam Wangchuk was removed from the protest site at Jantar Mantar. He has been on a hunger strike for the past 20 days. The 59-year-old had been protesting alongside the online satirical movement known as the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP).
The CJP started in May as an online movement to protest against paper leaks. They have been protesting for a month now, and some members of student organisations have also joined Wangchuk in his fast.
