Rijiju slams Congress for stalling anti-paper leak bill debate

Parliament was adjourned for the day on Monday amid opposition protests over the NEET paper leak and alleged police action on students, preventing debate on the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju accused the Congress and its allies of deliberately disrupting the bill's discussion, despite having initially demanded a debate on exam integrity. Rijiju emphasized the bill's importance for the welfare of children and students.
