𝗦𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗺 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗰𝗵𝘂𝗸: 𝗔𝗻 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿:) Born in 1966 in Uleytokpo, Ladakh; graduated in Mechanical Engineering from NIT Srinagar (1987). Founded SECMOL (1988), reforming Ladakh’s education system → improved Class 10 pass rate from 5% to 75%+. Promoted local culture, language, and community-driven schools across Ladakh. Innovated sustainable solutions: SECMOL solar campus, passive solar houses (cut heating needs by 60–70%), and Ice Stupas (10–15 million liters water each, irrigating 50–100 hectares; 50+ built). Prevented 20–30% crop losses, reduced kerosene/diesel dependence, and advocated renewable energy. Became a social activist, demanding Sixth Schedule safeguards & statehood for Ladakh. Led major movements: 21-day climate fast (2024) and Gen Z–led Leh protests (2025) → large youth participation; later arrested under NSA. Highlighted ecological strain: 3–4 lakh tourists annually vs ~3 lakh population. Received global recognition: Rolex Award (2016), Ramon Magsaysay Award (2018). Inspired the character “Phunsukh Wangdu” in 3 Idiots.

Here is a Reason Why Demanding 6th Schedule & Statehood for Ladakh Could Be Bad for India 1. Strategic Sensitivity - Ladakh borders China and Pakistan, making it a highly sensitive military zone. - Greater autonomy could complicate India's security operations and military control in the region. 2. Weakened Central Control - Statehood or 6th Schedule could reduce direct control by the central government, limiting its ability to manage foreign threats and infrastructure projects. - Granting special status may trigger similar demands from other regions (e.g., Jammu, Gorkhaland, Bodoland), risking further political fragmentation. 3. Administrative Complications - Ladakh has a small population but a vast area, making it hard to sustain a separate state or autonomous governance structure efficiently. 4. Conflict Between Communities - Ladakh has both Buddhist (Leh) and Shia Muslim (Kargil) populations with different political aspirations. 5. Impact on National Projects.

I’m an odd one, but all these solar module and cell makers doing IPOs right now will be in deep trouble 2-3yrs down the line 🙏🙏 Why? Cuz, their biggest customers will no longer be buying from them. That will leave a market with just small players
