Indianewslive247.com – Bollywood superstar Salman Khan has once again stepped forward to address the ongoing situation involving students protesting at Jantar Mantar in Delhi. The actor took to social media on Thursday, July 23, 2026, to share his thoughts on the Central Jammu and Kashmir People’s Protest (CJP) and the NEET examination paper leak incident. In his latest tweet, Salman Khan made a dual appeal – urging students to return home while also asking activist Sonam Wangchuk to conclude his hunger strike.
Salman Khan’s Message to Protesting Students
Through his social media platform, Salman Khan expressed deep concern for the students who have been demonstrating for days. The actor emphasized that the wellbeing and education of these young protesters should be the top priority for everyone involved. He reassured the students that they need not worry about their families, as the government is taking the matter seriously.
The students are at top priority, educationally n security-wise, so they need not worry and have their parents worried for them. The Honorable Prime Minister has tweeted, and I am sure that he will take strict action against all those people who are responsible for this leak. So…
Salman Khan further highlighted that the Prime Minister had already made a statement regarding the paper leak incident. The actor expressed confidence that appropriate measures would be taken against those responsible for the examination paper leak. He encouraged the students to return to their homes and reunite with their parents, emphasizing that their safety and education remain paramount concerns.
Salman Khan’s Appeal to Sonam Wangchuk
Alongside his message to the students, Salman Khan also addressed Sonam Wangchuk directly. The activist had been observing a hunger strike as part of the protest movement, and Salman Khan felt it was time for him to end the fast. The actor suggested that Sonam should not prolong the situation unnecessarily.
और सोनम, बस हो गया। इसे और आगे मत खींचो। अगर जरूरत पड़ी तो इस जज्बे को किसी और दिन के लिए बचाकर रखना (हालांकि मुझे नहीं लगता कि जरूरत पड़ेगी) और कुछ खा-पी लो। अगर चाहो तो मैं घर से खाना भेज दूंगा।
In a warm gesture, Salman Khan offered to send food from his residence to Sonam Wangchuk if needed. This personal touch demonstrated the actor’s genuine concern for the activist’s health and wellbeing during the protest period. The offer to send home-cooked food showed how closely Salman Khan was following the developments.
