‘Income tax is not received in Ladakh, still sent notices’, Sonam Wangchuk, angry at cancellation of NGO license, give warning

The central government on Thursday (25 September 2025) canceled the FCRA registration of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk’s NGO. His NGOs are accused of repeatedly violating the law related to foreign funding. The CBI has started an investigation against foreign funding against an institute in Sonam Wangchuk. On this, Sonam Wangchuk said that the Ministry of Home Affairs blames a small person. He said that going to jail will awaken the youth.

I was targeted: Wangchuk

Sonam Wangchuk said, “Elections are going to come in Ladakh after two months, in which people are asking that the promise made earlier. I had a big voice in it, so they targeted me and one and a half months ago I was told that there is an FIR of treason on you. After this, there was talk of investigation of CBI.”

We did not take FCRA: Wangchuk

Wangchuk said, “It is written in the CBI notice that in 2022-24 your organization got funds from abroad, which you do not have permission. You do not have FCRA. Got money from a university in Switzerland and a organization in Italy. “

‘After the violence, all the blame was put on Sonam Wangchuk’

He said, “We are getting summon from income tax. They do not know that Ladakh does not pay any tax in the region. Then a man pays tax here, he is here because I understand their responsibilities. How many people are there in India, who are in India without asking income tax, yet we have summons of IT. All this happened like a link.
