The Delhi High Court notifies a designated court to handle criminal cases related to exam paper leaks and the alleged use of unfair means in public examinations. The court appoints Judge Anu Grover Baliga as the Special Judge for a fast-track court meant to process these cases more quickly.
The development follows a decision announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who said on Thursday that fast-track courts would be established to deal with paper leak cases promptly. The High Court’s notification is presented as an operational step to implement this approach within the judicial system.
While the notifications focus on the criminal prosecution side of exam leak-related allegations, they also signal an intent to streamline case handling for investigations and trials involving leaked question papers. The designation establishes a specific forum and judge to oversee such matters under the fast-track mechanism, aiming to reduce delays in the legal process connected to these cases.
