'May invite legal action': Delhi University asks students to stay away from protest at Jantar Mantar

Government sources said the Centre is considering compensation for families of students who died by suicide and a detailed parliamentary discussion on exam reforms.

  • The Centre is considering a policy to avoid legal action against peaceful protesters at Jantar Mantar and those who marched toward Parliament on July 20, aiming to ease tensions surrounding the NEET-UG 2026 paper leak controversy.
  • Following a video message from Prime Minister Narendra Modi assuring students their futures remain secure, activist Sonam Wangchuk ended his 26-day hunger strike at Medanta Hospital in Gurugram.
  • Union Ministers Nadda and Jitendra Singh attended the protest's conclusion where the Centre assured Wangchuk that participants would face no legal action and their demands regarding the paper leak would be examined seriously.
  • Today, the Union Cabinet will review a draft of stringent anti-paper leak legislation, with the government planning to introduce and pass the Bill in Parliament next week to strengthen examination system accountability.
  • Despite government reform efforts, the CJP and Abhijeet Dipke vowed to continue their protest, maintaining pressure on authorities to address the broader social and emotional impacts of the NEET-UG paper leak scandal.
