Delhi Court reserves order on cognisance of CBI chargesheet in NEET-UG paper leak case
New Delhi [India], August 6 : The Rouse Avenue court on Thursday reserved its order on the cognisance of a massive 20,000-page charge sheet filed by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) against 13 accused persons in the NEET-UG paper leak case. Special CBI Judge Ajay Gupta noted that the scrutiny of the charge sheet and accompanying documents has been completed. The court is scheduled to pronounce its order on cognisance, with subsequent proceedings and arguments on charges slated to begin soon. The matter is listed for the pronouncement of the order regarding the cognisance of the charge sheet. All 13 accused individuals currently remain in judicial custody, with their custody officially extended up to August 10. Digital e-copies of the charge sheet have been successfully supplied to all accused parties. The matter is listed for order on cognisance on August 7. The court has also reserved its order on applications seeking permission to conduct polygraph tests, brain mapping, and lie detector tests on accused individuals Mangilal Biwal, Dinesh Biwal, and Vikas Biwal. While the defence argued these tests ensure a transparent investigation under Article 21, the CBI opposed the application, calling it non-maintainable and pushing for heavy costs. Accused Dinesh Biwal and Vikas Biwal were granted time until August 18 to thoroughly review the voluminous charge sheet and prepare arguments for their bail applications. While opposing the application, the CBI senior Public Prosecutor V K Pathak argued that this application is not maintainable and a high cost should be imposed upon the accused as the government has set up the special fast track court. Advocate AP Singh, the counsel for the accused, submitted that the tests will help in a fair and transparent investigation. He also submitted that a fair investigation and fair trial are a right of the accused under Article 21 of the Constitution of India. The accused Dinesh Biwal and Vikas Biwal sought and were granted time till August 18 to go through the charge sheet and to argue the bail applications. On August 4, the Special Fast Track Court at Rouse Avenue for Paper leak cases directed the CBI to complete the scrutiny of the chargesheet and supply the copies to the accused persons by August 6. The CBI has filed the charge sheet against 13 Accused persons for the offences of criminal conspiracy, cheating, criminal breach of trust, destruction of evidence and others under BNS, for the offence of criminal misconduct under the Prevention of Corruption Act and for offences under the Public Examination (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024. CBI cited 360 witnesses, 422 documents and 43 material objects in this charge sheet. All 13 chargesheeted persons are in judicial custody as on date. The agency said that the Department of Higher Education, Government of India, had lodged a written complaint on May 12, 2026, regarding irregularities and allegations of paper leak in NEET-UG 2026 Examination which was held on May 3, 2026. The CBI said it registered the FIR on May 12, 2026, and immediately formed multiple teams with 72 officers/ personnel along with 08 Cyber Forensic Experts. Searches were conducted at 92 locations in Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi and other States. These searches led to seizure of incriminating material like digital and communication devices, documents, etc. Forensic imaging and analysis of the incriminating material has been undertaken. The first arrest in this case was made on May 13, 2026. A total of 13 accused have been arrested in the case, which included 03 NTA subject experts of Chemistry, Biology and Physics. Several middlemen who have sourced and distributed these leaked questions have also been identified and arrested. Two individuals associated with coaching institutes have also been arrested for obtaining these leaked question papers from the above experts. The money trail analysis was done, and several bank accounts, bank lockers and a demat account of the accused have been frozen, the CBI said. (ANI)

CM Omar visits flood-affected Rajouri, reviews damage; meets affected families
RAJOURI, AUGUST 06: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today undertook an extensive tour of flood-affected areas in Rajouri district to assess the damage caused by the recent devastating flash floods. Reaffirming his Governments commitment to the affected people, he assured them that every possible assistance would be extended to ensure timely relief, rehabilitation of families and restoration of infrastructure. During the visit, the Chief Minister called on the family of Abdul Ghani, a Jal Shakti (PHE) daily-wage worker who lost his life after being swept away by flash floods while on night duty at a water supply pumping station in Kote Behrote, Thanamandi. Expressing his heartfelt condolences, he conveyed his sympathies to the bereaved family and assured them of the Governments full support. At the PWD Dak Bungalow, the Chief Minister met the family of Javed Iqbal, son of Sain Khan and a resident of Kandi Budhal Block; the family of Vikas Choudhary, a resident of Panchayat Bagla in Qila Darhal Block; the family of Shahida Parveen, wife of Abdul Rehman of Bhatian village; and Pinky Singh, wife of Bablu Singh, a resident of Sunderbani. He expressed profound grief over their losses, conveyed his condolences, and assured each family that the Government would stand by them during this difficult time. The Chief Minister later inspected the damaged Circular Road in Rajouri, where nearly 200 metres of the road was washed away in the July 19 flash floods. He also visited the flood-hit Aitey area to assess the extensive damage to residential areas, public infrastructure and local connectivity. Directing the concerned departments to expedite restoration works, he instructed them to undertake necessary protective measures to safeguard vulnerable locations against future calamities. The Chief Minister also visited the severely affected Bela Bus Stand, where he took a first-hand appraisal of the damage to the bus stand, adjoining public infrastructure and commercial establishments. Interacting with local residents and officials, he directed the district administration to ensure the early restoration of essential services and public infrastructure. Reiterating the Governments unwavering commitment to the welfare of the affected people, the Chief Minister said that rehabilitation of affected families and restoration of damaged infrastructure would be taken up on priority to facilitate an early return to normalcy in the district. The Chief Minister also visited the office of the Deputy Commissioner, Rajouri, which was declared unsafe following the recent floods. He took stock of the damage caused to the building and assured that the Government would take appropriate measures to address the issue and ensure the smooth functioning of the district administration. The Chief Minister was accompanied by MLA Rajouri Iftkhar Ahmed, MLA Budhal Javed Iqbal Choudhary, MLA Thanamandi Muzaffar Iqbal Khan, Additional Chief Secretary to the CM Dheeraj Gupta, Deputy Commissioner Rajouri Abhishek Sharma, SSP Rajouri Gaurav Sikarwar, ADDC Rajouri Malikzada Sheraz-ul-Haq and other senior civil and police officers during the visit.

CM Omar assures enhanced relief, rehabilitation during Rajouri post-flood review
RAJOURI, AUGUST 06: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today reviewed relief, restoration and rehabilitation measures following the recent flash floods in Rajouri and directed the district administration and concerned departments to expedite restoration works, strengthen rehabilitation efforts and undertake long-term mitigation measures to safeguard vulnerable areas. Chairing a high-level review meeting, the Chief Minister observed that natural disasters, particularly cloudbursts and flash floods, have become increasingly frequent in Jammu and Kashmir in recent years. He noted that while the Meteorological Department provides rainfall forecasts and timely advisories are issued, accurately predicting the precise location of cloudbursts remains a challenge, limiting preparedness in specific areas. The Chief Minister appreciated the District Administration Rajouri for issuing timely advisories and pre-positioning men and machinery in vulnerable locations, which helped minimise the loss of lives. He also lauded the prompt rescue, relief and evacuation operations undertaken in the immediate aftermath of the disaster. Emphasising the need for enhanced support to affected families, the Chief Minister said that the existing relief assistance is inadequate to meet the costs of reconstruction and rehabilitation. He assured that the J&K Government would enhance the quantum of relief and provide comprehensive rehabilitation assistance, particularly to families whose houses have been damaged and those rendered landless. Directing the Deputy Commissioner Rajouri to identify suitable Government land, the Chief Minister said that families who have lost both their homes and agricultural land should be provided five marlas of land for rehabilitation. He further instructed the administration to ensure the immediate provision of special free ration to such families. Reviewing restoration efforts, the Chief Minister noted that the 33 KV power transmission line between Rajouri and Poonch had suffered extensive damage, disrupting electricity supply. While appreciating the temporary restoration carried out by the Power Development Department, he directed the concerned authorities to complete permanent restoration works at the earliest. Highlighting the critical role of the Public Health Engineering (PHE) Department in restoring drinking water supply, the Chief Minister directed the department to submit proposals for the installation of hand pumps wherever feasible to ensure a reliable source of drinking water in affected areas. On road infrastructure, the Chief Minister emphasised that roads in hilly and mountainous regions require specialised, resilient engineering designs capable of withstanding natural disasters. Observing that designs suitable for the plains cannot be replicated in mountainous terrain, he directed the Public Works Department to submit recommendations for developing more disaster-resilient road infrastructure. The Chief Minister also directed that a proposal for the construction of a Mini Secretariat in Rajouri be prepared and submitted. He asked the administration to explore the possibility of monetising Government office spaces that would become available after departments are relocated to the proposed complex. Referring to construction along riverbanks, the Chief Minister observed that rivers naturally reclaim their courses during extreme weather events and stressed that construction in such vulnerable areas would not be permitted in future. He also assured that issues relating to the alternate bus stand, Jal Shakti restoration and other important public infrastructure requirements would be examined sympathetically. Commending the coordinated efforts of the District Administration and all line departments, the Chief Minister urged them to sustain the same level of commitment and ensure that all necessary preventive and mitigation measures are implemented to minimise the impact of such disasters in future. The meeting was attended by MLA Rajouri Iftkhar Ahmed, MLA Thanamandi Muzaffar Iqbal Khan, MLA Budhal Javed Iqbal Choudhary, Additional Chief Secretary to the Chief Minister Dheeraj Gupta, Deputy Commissioner Rajouri Abhishek Sharma, SSP Rajouri Gaurav Sikarwar, ADDC Rajouri Malikzada Sheraz-ul-Haq, ADC Rajouri Ravi Kumar Sihag and other senior officers.

MMU Expresses Outrage Over Pork Products on Blinkit
Srinagar Aug 06 : The Mutahida Majlis-e-Ulema (MMU) Jammu & Kashmir on Thursday expressed strong outrage and shock after it came to light that pork products were being listed for sale on the online delivery platform Blinkit in the Kashmir valley. In a statement the organisation said the development, which came to the fore through screenshots shared by concerned citizens, has triggered sharp reactions from religious quarters. The MMU, in a statement, underscored that the sale and consumption of pork is strictly prohibited in Islam and that the Muslim community holds immense sensitivity on this matter. Questioning the authorities, the MMU sought a thorough investigation into how such items were allowed to enter the local market for sale. The apex religious body also called for strict action and warnings against those found responsible for the lapse. In a clear directive, the Majlis asked Blinkit to immediately take the products off its shelves and ensure, with utmost seriousness, that pork products are neither stocked, advertised, nor sold in Kashmir. Asserting that businesses operating in the region must respect the religious and cultural ethos of the area, the MMU maintained that all commercial entities must act responsibly and adhere to local sensitivities.
