Paper leak Bill a milestone, says govt; Opposition calls it ‘cosmetic exercise’
The Indian government defended the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, as a significant step against paper leaks, while the Opposition criticized it as a mere 'cosmetic exercise.' Congress deputy leader Gaurav Gogoi questioned the necessity of amending a law the government previously deemed 'historic' just two years prior. The debate reflects ongoing tensions between the ruling party and the Opposition regarding educational integrity and governance.
