Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday called the NEET 2026 paper leak a "grave sin" during the NDA Parliamentary Party meeting, saying the government acted quickly after the incident. Union Minister Kiren Rijiju said 13 accused have been arrested and sent to jail, while a NEET re-examination was conducted and results declared on time. Modi urged states to work closely with the Centre to stop future paper leaks and ensure strict punishment for those responsible. The controversy has also triggered legal challenges, with petitions seeking the dissolution of the National Testing Agency and a CBI investigation into the alleged examination malpractice.
