Parliament debate on anti-paper leak Bill delayed by opposition uproar
The Centre introduced the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, proposing imprisonment of up to 10 years and fines up to Rs 10 crore for organised exam malpractice.
Parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju urged opposition MPs to allow a discussion on the anti-paper leak Bill, saying it is important for students.
Opposition parties demanded a statement from Union home minister Amit Shah on alleged police action against protesting students, including an incident in Siwan, Bihar, where a constable was suspended for using an AK-47 rifle.
Both Houses of Parliament were adjourned for the day amid sloganeering, with Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha scheduled to meet again on Tuesday.
