New Delhi: In a major step aimed at tightening the noose around examination paper leak rackets, the Union Cabinet on Friday approved the proposed Anti-Paper Leak Bill, clearing the way for its introduction in Parliament on Monday during the ongoing Monsoon Session.
The decision was taken at a special meeting of the Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has pitched the legislation as part of the Centre's broader push to safeguard the integrity of public examinations and crack down on organised exam fraud.
