Leh Apex Body co-convenor Cherring Dorjay Lakruk declared late on Thursday, July 23, 2026, that activist Sonam Wangchuk had broken his fast. According to Mr. Wangchuk, he broke the fast under specific conditions in front of two Union Ministers. He noted that the administration had promised in writing that proceedings against students would be dropped if they weren’t violent. Additionally, he said, the government promised in writing to take into account compensation for NEET applicants who committed suicide.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi attempted to allay students’ worries about NEET paper leaks on Thursday, July 23, 2026, by posting on social media. “I am deeply aware that a paper leak is no ordinary lapse; it is an injustice that inflicts severe distress upon millions of aspiring students and their families,” he stated. Over the past two and a half months, we have taken quick, uncompromising action in response to this gravity. The criminals are currently incarcerated after being apprehended.
Mr. Modi introduced fast-track courts earlier in the day to guarantee prompt punishment for paper leaks. In yet another late-night event, the Delhi High Court appointed Judge Anu Grover Baliga as Special Judge of the fast-track court to handle criminal cases involving the use of unfair methods in public examinations and paper leaks.
