Sonam Wangchuk has been in the news every now and then. Last we heard; he was fasting unto death. But just a day or so ago, he and his supporters were embarking on a march to Delhi, aiming to urge the Indian government to reopen discussions regarding their demands. Central to their petition is the request to include Ladakh in the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution, which would grant greater autonomy and protection to specific tribal regions. This inclusion is said to be essential for better resource management in the area. However, the Delhi Police detained him at the Singhu border.
But who is Sonam Wangchuk? Is he the character portrayed by Aamir Khan in the film 3 Idiots? Or is he someone else?
As per media propaganda, Sonam Wangchuk is an Indian engineer, innovator, education reformist, and climate activist, and the movie ‘3 Idiots’ was based on him. But there are a lot of things that the media didn’t and won’t tell you. Read on…
In Three Idiots, they told you that Rancho was a son of poor Gardner but in real Sonam Wangchuk comes from a very powerful and influential family His father Sonam Wangyal was a Congress leader and Minister in the J&K govt.
In 1988, he started the Students Educational and Cultural Movement of Ladakh. In 1995, he started a project, Operation New Hope. All his projects were funded by the Ford Foundation, Tata Trust, Dan Church Aid, and Karuna Trust. He always received huge support from foreign organizations. We wonder why.
In the late 80s or early 90s, he met an American lady named Rebecca Norman and they got married in 1996. We don’t know why this story of Rebecca Norman has been completely erased by the media. We do not know if they remain married today. But after meeting Rebecca, Sonam’s life changed completely.
Rebecca earned her bachelor’s in International Studies degree at the School for International Training (SIT) and a master’s in Education from Harvard University. SIT, is a private non-profit regionally accredited institution headquartered in Brattleboro, US. It has a close connection with the State Department.
SIT is funded by the Ford Foundation, the George Soros Open Source Foundation, and the B&MG Foundation. Additionally, Rebecca is a close supporter of Biden also and a huge critic of Donald Trump.
After marrying Rebecca, Sonam suddenly started getting huge support from foreign organizations. In 2002, he received the Ashoka fellowship which is funded by the Skoll Foundation, Schwab Foundation, and Rockefeller Foundation.
In 2004, Manmohan Singh became the Prime Minister of India. Sonam always received special patronage from the Congress party. He was appointed to the Drafting Committee of Ladakh Hill Council Vision Document Ladakh 2025 and entrusted with the formulation of the policy on Education and Tourism in 2004.
The document was formally launched by Manmohan Singh in 2005. In 2005, Wangchuk was appointed as a member of the National Governing Council for Elementary Education in the Ministry of HRD in Manmohan Singh Govt.
From 2007 to 2010, Wangchuk worked as an education advisor for Mellemfolkeligt Samvirk, a Danish NGO working to support the Ministry of Education for education reforms. He received a lot of patronage from the puppet Manmohan Singh government (Sonia Gandhi government). In 2008, Congress signed a secret MoU with China.
China’s popular Hero Amir Khan’s movie 3 Idiots gets released. That film was based on Chetan Bhagat’s novel Five Point Someone. But after some time, one section of the media suddenly started to link this movie with Sonam Wangchuk. The truth is that there is no connection between 3 idiots and Sonam.
Sonam’s best time starts in 2016. In 2016, he received the International Fred M. Packard Award, awarded by the Switzerland-based International Union for Conservation of Nature. This award is funded by Rockefeller, Pew, Packard Foundation, etc.
In 2017, he received the TN Khoshoo Memorial Award which is again funded by the Ford Foundation.
In 2018, he received his biggest award – the Magsaysay Award. We already know the link between Magsaysay, Ford, and the CIA in our Ford Foundation thread Magsaysay Award is especially given to CIA assets
Sonam is associated with an NGO LEAD India which is again funded by … no prizes for guessing…. Ford Foundation!
Sonam is also associated with the International Association for Ladakh Studies which published a four-volume book on Ladakh culture. This project was funded by the Ford Foundation, and it seems there is a special connection between Sonam, the CIA’s Ford Foundation, and Congress.
Earlier he supported the repeal of Article 370 but later he became unhappy with the repeal of Article 370. Pakistan used his statement against India.
He calls himself a climate activist and education reformist. His project Ice Stupas was appreciated by Western media, but his own villagers raised doubt about it.
Currently, he is demanding to add Ladakh to the 6th schedule of the constitution which is not possible because the 6th schedule is only for Northeast states. His other demand is to stop construction activity by the Indian army in Ladakh because it may hurt the climate of Ladakh.
