India: Modi orders fast-track courts for paper leaks amid protests

On July 23, 2026, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the establishment of fast-track courts to prosecute individuals involved in leaking entrance exam papers, vowing 'strict and stringent' punishments. The move comes amid widespread student-led protests across the country, particularly in New Delhi, where demonstrators are demanding the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Protests have persisted for over a week, with participants gathering at the historic Jantar Mantar site. Authorities have taken measures such as closing nearby metro stations under 'security reasons,' though protesters claim they faced obstacles accessing the site. While Modi did not directly address the protests in his statement, the government has continued to emphasize efforts to protect students' interests.
