A Delhi court has rejected an accused’s plea to defer arguments on charge, in the CBI-probed NEET-UG 2026 paper-leak case, until a supplementary chargesheet is filed against the newly arrested accused. The court held that the CBI can file a supplementary chargesheet even during trial, that the investigation against the 13 chargesheeted accused is complete, and that the Public Examinations Act requires the trial to proceed expeditiously.
A Delhi court has issued notice to the Delhi Police and sought a status report on a plea under Section 175(3) BNSS seeking the registration of an FIR against a minor CJP protester and her father over allegedly communal social-media posts. The allegations are untested, no FIR has been ordered, and, the accused being a minor, any proceeding would fall under the juvenile-justice framework. The matter is listed in January 2027.
