The Delhi Police Commissioner, by a letter of 5 October 2024, rejected the request to hold a peaceful demonstration at Jantar Mantar. According to The Tribune, the letter said the request came too late and lacked details of timing and numbers, and that applications must be made at least 10 days in advance. A petition by the Apex Body Leh challenging the refusal was filed in the Delhi High Court; on 22 October the Solicitor General said Wangchuk had withdrawn his fast after discussions, and the petition was dismissed as withdrawn.
