Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju on Tuesday (July 21, 2026) said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that the government took immediate action after the NEET paper leak. Addressing the reporters after the NDA parliamentary party meeting, Mr. Rijiju said, “Furthermore, prioritising the students’ futures, a re-examination was successfully conducted without delay in declaring the results.” The Minister said that PM Modi also outlined the stringent steps being taken to avert future leaks.
“He stressed the need to punish the guilty and collaboratively establish a foolproof system,” added Mr. Rijiju. The remarks come after Cockroach Janta Party’s (CJP) march to Parliament demanding Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation and educational accountability on Monday (July 20, 2026) was met with lathi charge, tear gas, and internet cut-off.
The Opposition accused the BJP-led government of silencing the issue in the Monsoon session of Parliament on Monday (June 20, 2026). Leader of Opposition Mallikarjun Kharge
raised the question of paper leaks and the student protests in the Rajya Sabha but was disallowed any discussion on issues other than listed in the agenda.
