March details
Wangchuk's march and previous detention
Wangchuk and his supporters had earlier marched to Delhi from Leh, demanding Ladakh's inclusion in the sixth schedule of the Constitution.

Constitutional demand
Protesters' demands for Ladakh's constitutional inclusion
The protesters are demanding Ladakh's inclusion in the sixth schedule of the Constitution.
The schedule allows for the administration of tribal areas in northeastern states such as Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura, and Mizoram.
It establishes autonomous councils with legislative, judicial, executive and financial powers to govern these areas independently.
Apart from this, they are also demanding statehood for Ladakh along with a separate public service commission and separate Lok Sabha seats for Leh and Kargil districts.
