Despite disquiet in the streets and parliament, a sense of denial seems to drape the Narendra Modi government’s response to paper leaks across the country.
For the last two months, Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan has at least thrice denied that there was any evidence of a paper leak in the controversial NEET-UG exam, going on to suggest that no paper was in fact leaked in the last seven years. This, despite the Supreme Court’s observation that there was a leak in Jharkhand’s Hazaribagh and Bihar’s Patna.
