NEET Paper Leak Case Hearing Adjourned After CBI Prosecutor Absence in Fast-Track Court
The first hearing in the NEET paper leak case before a newly designated fast-track court was adjourned after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) failed to send a prosecutor. The court postponed the bail hearing of accused Dinesh and Vikas Biwal to August 3, directing the Directorate of Prosecution to assign a public prosecutor. The court was established following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's announcement to expedite paper leak cases. Opposition leaders, including Congress's Jairam Ramesh, criticized the government's handling of the case.
