Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday made the announcement about the establishment of fast track courts for examination papers leaks, assuring immediate punishment for those involved in it, as protests and disruption of parliament sessions on examination paper leaks have escalated.

Through his post on the social networking site X, the Prime Minister said that ensuring the security of the future of students continues to remain a top priority for the government and assured stern action against those involved in examination paper leaks.

This came after continued protests and disruption of parliament sessions by the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) and opposition parties against Dharmendra Pradhan, Union Minister of Education.

The Leader of the Opposition, Rahul Gandhi, criticised the PM's statement, saying the government had not protected the education system. Repeating the demands of the opposition, he demanded the resignation of the Education Minister, a sorry from the government to the students and action against those responsible for the attack on the students by the police force.

The CJP did not give up its demand for the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan even after the government declared the fast-track court for the case.

Both Houses of Parliament saw disruption owing to the controversy of the NEET paper leak. The opposition members were still sloganeering, saying that the Education Minister should resign before any discussion takes place.

Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said that the Opposition has stalled the discussion by adding new conditions, while Speaker Om Birla and Vice Chairman of Rajya Sabha Harivansh called for cooperation so that discussion could resume.

Lok Sabha also passed a resolution suspending Trinamool Congress Member of Parliament Kalyan Banerjee for the rest of the Monsoon Session because of some objectionable comments, after which the House was adjourned for the day.

The paper leak issue has become one of the major political controversies of the Monsoon Session, as there is a continuous demand for reforms from students, opposition leaders, and other youth organizations. Business Honor believes restoring confidence in India's examination system requires swift justice, institutional accountability and transparent reforms that protect students' futures while strengthening trust in public education.
