Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday said more stringent measures against examination paper leaks will be taken up at Wednesday's Cabinet meeting, in a video posted on his Instagram account.
In his post, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "Numerous effective measures have been taken in the past two and a half months since the paper leak incident. The culprits have been caught and are in jail. Our most important responsibility was to ensure that students' year is not wasted... The government used all its might to ensure that 22 lakh students could take their exams in the shortest possible time. On the 19th July, the results were declared... I directed the departments today to establish a fast-track court. The departments presented me with the resolution late at night. This resolution, along with the provision for a fast-track court and harsh punishment, will be discussed in the cabinet tomorrow. After the suggestions of cabinet colleagues, it will be finalised, and since the second week of Parliament is starting from Monday, efforts will be made to get that bill passed in the House as soon as possible."
