CBI says NEET UG 2026 leak involved Rajasthan family and interstate network exchanging papers for up to 12 lakh

Telegram PDFs were shared days before NEET, probe says

The CBI has laid out new claims in the alleged NEET-UG 2026 paper leak case, accusing a Rajasthan-based family of orchestrating an interstate network that procured and circulated leaked question papers for ₹10-12 lakh deals. Investigators trace the plot to April 2026, when a Nashik contact allegedly approached a Gurugram resident. They say original mark sheets, roll-number details and a cheque were used as security, with leaked sets sent via Telegram as PDFs before the exam.
