Bihar to Establish Fast-Track Courts for Exam Paper Leak Cases Amid Ongoing Justice Delays

Analysed 29 Jul 2026·2 sources analysed·Patna, India·Politics
Bihar to Establish Fast-Track Courts for Exam Paper Leak Cases Amid Ongoing Justice DelaysPreviousNext

The Patna High Court plans to establish three fast-track courts in Patna, Lakhisarai, and Purnea to expedite trials related to question paper leaks and unfair practices in public exams, aiming to deliver judgments within three months. These courts will handle cases under the Public Examination (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024. While fast-track courts have disposed of millions of cases over two decades, systemic challenges like investigation and prosecution delays persist, limiting the overall speed of justice delivery despite repeated government initiatives.
