New Delhi, July 22 -- Sonam Wangchuk's wife, Gitanjali Angmo, on Wednesday questioned the Central government's stance after Opposition MPs were stopped from meeting Wangchuk at Gurugram's Medanta Hospital.

Speaking to the media, Angmo said that the MPs brought a signed letter for Wangchuk to end his strike but the police stopped them outside the hospital.

"I am standing outside Medanta Hospital. As you can see, there is a heavy police presence behind me. Yesterday, Sonam was shifted here from Safdarjung Hospital under the High Court order, where it was clearly stated that Sonam is not under any detention and he is being shifted here for better care and freedom so that the police presence there is not there... It is a very shameful thing...
