Thousands of people continue to protest demanding the Indian education minister's resignation after representatives of the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) held talks with the government.
If that does not happen soon, we will be forced to announce another nationwide protest call," said Ranka.
The protests are led by CJP, an online satirical movement that has evolved into a powerful platform for young people's anxieties and dissent.
That changed last Saturday, when authorities forcibly removed Wangchuk from the protest site and admitted him to hospital, citing health concerns.
Exam paper leaks are at the centre of the controversy - India has witnessed dozens of them over the past couple of decades.
