India has extended a mobile internet shutdown in the capital, New Delhi, as Prime Minister Narendra Modi faces his biggest youth-led challenge since taking office in 2014. Leaders of the country’s education system are due to meet youth government officials later today in an effort to resolve a standoff over the country’s education system. The talks come hours after activist Sonam Wangchuk ended a 26-day hunger strike, amid growing public anger over a series of examination irregularities and other scandals. France 24 correspondent Sarah Jacob reports from New Delhi.
