NEET Protests: Govt to bring tougher new anti-paper leak bill in Parliament today. What's changed?
The Indian government will introduce the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, in Parliament today, responding to student protests and the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. The bill proposes stricter penalties for examination malpractices, including a jail term of up to 10 years and fines up to ₹50 lakh, while establishing fast-track courts to ensure trials are completed within three months. This legislation aims to enhance the transparency and integrity of public examinations amid growing concerns over paper leaks.
