The CJI on Thursday said the Godhra paper leak case appeared to be a local matter. “Nothing like that happened, rather they were caught before it could happen,” he said.
He said, “Students in Godhra did not get any opportunity. There was no wrongdoing. The procedure was that the centre in-charge would fill the blanks and students would not have to miss out. But eventually it was stopped.”

NEET paper leak case much less than estimated: CBI probe
The CBI probe into the NEET paper leak case has prima facie indicated that the level of manipulation may be much less than estimated, and less than 150 students have been affected, a top official of the agency told CNN-AyraNews24x7. “Only in the Patna-Hazaribagh case has there been evidence of paper theft. Here too, only one centre has been affected. Across the country, the total number of students affected could be even less than 150… Even within this number, the number of candidates who knew about the question paper before the exam could be even less,” he said.
