PM Modi posted a 2.56-minute video message on X, stating that paper leaks are not a trivial matter; They cause immense distress to lakhs of students and their parents. Consequently, several measures have been taken over the past two and a half months since the leak occurred; the culprits have been apprehended and are currently in jail. He noted that it was their responsibility to ensure students did not lose an academic year, so the exam for 2.2 million (22 lakh) students was conducted in a short timeframe, with results declared on July 19.
PM Modi further stated that he would not be satisfied with these measures alone; Therefore, instructions have been issued to establish fast-track courts. Departments submitted the draft to him late at night, incorporating provisions for fast-track courts and severe penalties. The Cabinet is set to discuss this on Friday.
