New Delhi, December 15: The Supreme Court on Monday deferred the hearing of the petition filed by Gitanjali J Angmo, wife of detained climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, to January 7, 2026.

The plea challenges Wangchuk's detention under the National Security Act (NSA) on September 26.

The bench, comprising Justices Aravind Kumar and N V Anjaria, postponed the matter citing a shortage of time.

The petition argues that Wangchuk's detention is illegal and an arbitrary action that infringes upon his fundamental rights.
