Parliament Passes Anti-Paper Leak Law Amid Opposition Protests

The Lok Sabha passed the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill on July 29, 2026, to address widespread exam paper leaks.

Opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, used the session to raise concerns regarding alleged police brutality against students protesting the previous exam failures.

The new law introduces stringent penalties for those involved in exam malpractices, marking a significant legislative response to the ongoing student unrest.
