India's Modi promises fast-track trials for exam paper leaks amid student protests

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has vowed to ensure speedy trials and stringent punishment for those involved in a exam paper leak scandal that has sparked widespread student protests. The announcement came after thousands of demonstrators, led by a social media-driven group calling itself the Cockroach Janta Party, clashed with police in New Delhi. The protests have become one of the biggest challenges to Modi since his re-election for a third term in 2024. The government plans to set up fast-track courts to handle cases of paper leaks, although Modi did not directly address the ongoing protests. Demonstrators demand accountability for the leaks, which they say undermine merit and fairness in examinations. The protests have drawn widespread attention, with students from across the country joining in.
