Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses the NEET-UG exam paper leak controversy, announcing measures to speed up legal action and increase penalties for offenders. In a late-night video message during ongoing protests, he says the government is prioritizing safeguards for students and announces the establishment of fast-track courts and a new law with stricter punishment. Following the announcement, the Delhi High Court notifies a special fast-track court at the Rouse Avenue complex to exclusively hear cases related to paper leaks and unfair practices. The court’s notification specifies that cases will fall under the Public Examinations Act, 2024. The move is described as a response to public protests and continuing allegations surrounding the NEET controversy. Multiple developments are occurring in parallel: the executive announcement of new legal and judicial measures by the Prime Minister, and the judiciary’s designation of a dedicated court to handle related cases. The process focuses on quicker hearings and prosecution for alleged breaches tied to exam integrity and fairness.
