CBI Files Supplementary Chargesheet in NEET Paper Leak Case

The filing names one more private individual and includes forensic findings as investigators say the probe into the exam leak is complete.

  • On Wednesday, the Central Bureau of Investigation filed a supplementary chargesheet in the NEET-UG 2026 paper leak case before a Delhi court, stating that "this concludes the probe in the leak."
  • After the National Testing Agency cancelled the NEET-UG 2026 examination on May 12 following discovery that at least 120 questions matched a guess paper, the CBI filed its first chargesheet on July 28 naming 13 accused.
  • Supporting the investigation, the CBI compiled 360 witnesses, 422 documents, and 43 material objects; the supplementary chargesheet incorporates forensic findings from the Central Forensic Science Laboratory and Government Examiner of Questioned Documents.
  • Special Judge Ajay Gupta directed that a copy be supplied to the 14th accused, Sheshrav Bajrang Suryawanshi, and posted the matter for further proceedings on Thursday. The CBI confirmed no government officials were involved.
  • In response to the scandal, the NTA removed 600 subject experts and introduced a four-tier system to scrutinize question papers, while the Union Education Ministry removed 50 staff members on August 17 following Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation.
