LEH (The Thursday Times) — Ladakh ke karkun Sonam Wangchuk ne ilaqe ki intizamiya se kaha hai ke woh unhein tehreeri taur par bataye ke kya woh apne ghar se bahar jane ke liye azad hain. Un ka kehna hai ke un ki rehaish gah par aur us ke ird gird taeenat taqreeban 20 musallah police ahalkaron ne amalan unhein wahin mehdood kar diya hai.
Wangchuk ne Jumeraat, 12 November ki tareekh wali tehreeri darkhwast mein kaha: "Un ki maujoodgi ka amli asar yeh hai ke main apne ghar tak mehdood hoon." Unhon ne poocha ke agar woh bahar jane ke liye azad nahin hain to unhein kis qanooni shiq ke tehat roka ja raha hai.
Leh ke additional district magistrate ki janib se Budh ko Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita ki dafa 163 ke tehat jari kiya gaya 60 roza hukm nama unhein ghair mujaz rallies aur ijtimaat ke inaqad ya un mein shirkat se rokta hai. Wangchuk ka kehna hai ke hukm name mein unhein ghar par rehne ka nahin kaha gaya aur na hi nazarbandi, hirasat ya pabandi ka koi zikr hai, aur Budh ki shaam unhein ghar pohanchane ke baad police ne sirf zabani taur par ghar ke andar rehne ko kaha.
Dharne se ghar pohancha diya gaya
Wangchuk ke mutabiq woh Budh ki raat taqreeban aath baje Leh ke NDS Memorial Park mein thay, jahan dharna hona tha, ke police pohanchi aur unhein hukm name ki copy thama di. Un ka ilzam hai ke chaar naqab posh afraad ne unhein ek gaari mein dhakela aur Himalayan Institute of Alternatives, Ladakh ke campus mein un ke ghar le gaye, aur unhein apne ahl-e-khana ko ittila dene ya wakeel ko phone karne ke liye phone istemal nahin karne diya gaya. Police pehle keh chuki thi ke us ne imtinai ahkamat ke tehat unhein ghar pohanchaya.
Unhon ne hukm name mein "kisi bhi sargarmi" par pabandi ko mubham qarar diya aur kaha ke is mein yeh nahin bataya gaya ke woh kahan aur kab ja sakte hain, aur yeh unhein kaam karne, ilaj karwane, ibadat karne ya khandani zimmedariyan nibhane se bhi rok sakta hai. Unhon ne Leh ke senior superintendent of police ke us khat ki copy maangi jis ki buniyad par hukm jari hua, aur hukm nama aur police ki taeenati dono wapas lene ka mutalba kiya.
Yeh dharna hill council intikhabat ko 4 December tak aage lane, Ladakh ke rehnumaon aur markazi hukoomat ke darmiyan ta'attul ka shikar muzakrat, aur 24 September 2025 ko Leh mein hone wale tashaddud, jis mein chaar afraad halak hue thay, ki adalati inquiry report jari karne mein takheer ke khilaf bulaya gaya tha. Wangchuk ke mutabiq Jumeraat ko taqreeban 600 afraad jama hue aur ehtijaj pur-aman raha.
Unhon ne kaha ke intikhabi amal 8 December ko khatam ho jayega, aur intizamiya par ilzam lagaya ke woh voting se pehle un ke haqooq salb karne ke liye qadam utha rahi hai.
Police ka kehna hai ke aman muqaddam hai
Leh-Kargil range ke deputy inspector general of police Kaushal Sharma ne kaha ke aman aur aman-e-aama barqarar rakhna police ki awaleen tarjeeh hai. Unhon ne kaha: "Jahan bhi hamein lage ke ghair qanooni sargarmiyan ho rahi hain ya naqz-e-aman ka imkan hai", police qawaid ke tehat karrawai karti hai, aur yeh ke security taeenati aur rukawatein aarzi hain.
Unhon ne kaha ke Election Commission intikhabi muddat ke dauran municipal hudood mein ehtijaj par pabandi lagata hai, aur shehriyon par zor diya ke woh is ke bajaye jamhoori amal mein hissa lein.
Chering Dorje Lakruk ki qayadat mein Leh Apex Body ne Jumeraat ko doosre roz bhi ehtijaj jari rakha, aur is ke rehnumaon ne kaha ke Wangchuk nazarband hain. Kargil mein Kargil Democratic Alliance ke shareek chairman Sajjad Kargili ne kaha: "Kisi ko bhi kisi soorat pur-aman tareeqe se ikhtilaf-e-raye ka izhar karne se nahin roka ja sakta." Unhon ne kaha ke ek wafd Jumma ko Wangchuk aur Apex Body ke chairman se milne Leh jayega, aur Jumma ki shaam Kargil mein shamein jala kar march ka elan kiya.
Ladakh mein 21 November ko panchayat aur municipal intikhabat honge, jis ke baad 4 December ko is ki aath hill development councils ke intikhabat honge.
