Leh, Sept 26. Environmental activist Sonam Wangchuk from Ladakh has alleged that the Union Territory administration of Ladakh is targeting him with threats of legal and investigative action ahead of the upcoming Hill Council elections in October.

Wangchuk claimed that after his agitation, the authorities served notices to reclaim land on which his alternative learning campus, the Hial Alternative University, is built and hinted at a possible Enforcement Directorate (ED) probe into his activities.

“It will not be surprising if tomorrow they will send ED to investigate me. Is India becoming a banana republic?” Wangchuk asked. Wangchuk told the news agency Kashmir News Trust that the UT administration has threatened demolition of the campus, which has been developed over five years.
