NEET UG 2026 paper leak: arrests, detentions and official actions so far
Police and central agencies have arrested five people in connection with the paper leak. Those named by authorities include three from Jaipur — Mangilal Biwal , Vikas Biwal , and Dinesh Biwal — along with Yash Yadav from Gurugram and Shubham Khairnar from Nashik.
The National Testing Agency cancelled the NEET UG 2026 exam held on May 3 after allegations of a leak. The Rajasthan Special Operations Group detained more than 150 people, including candidates and some family members, during its early probes.
After the cancellation, a CBI inquiry was ordered and the agency took over the case on Tuesday . Authorities have not publicly detailed formal charges, forensic findings or the full timeline of how the paper was allegedly leaked and distributed.
What students need to know: the NTA cancellation affects all candidates who sat for the exam on May 3 . The CBI takeover means the investigation has moved to a central agency; officials have yet to announce a date for any re-examination or guidance on refunds and next steps.
CBI, NTA and Rajasthan SOG statements are expected as the probe progresses. The CBI visit to the Jamwaramgarh house is the latest development in an ongoing investigation into the NEET UG 2026 paper leak.
