Former BJP MP Jamyang Tsering Namgyal has called for an impartial judicial probe into the killing of four protesters in Ladakh during security forces' firing. The incident occurred when demonstrations demanding statehood and constitutional safeguards turned violent, with authorities later arresting activist Sonam Wangchuk under the National Security Act. Namgyal's letter to the Lieutenant Governor emphasizes that security forces could have handled the situation with greater patience.
