Bigger fines, longer jail terms, fast-track courts: How new paper leak Bill amends 2024 law
The Lok Sabha passed the Public Examination Amendment Bill 2026, introducing harsher penalties and fast-track courts for paper leak cases. This legislation follows disruptions in Parliament related to the NEET paper leak and protests by students. The Bill is set for consideration in the Rajya Sabha, aiming to strengthen the framework established by the 2024 Act against unfair practices in public examinations.
