NEET paper leak: Bihar Deputy CM draws link to RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav
The Hindu
The Economic Offences Wing of Bihar Police had last month arrested 13 people as part of its investigation into the alleged paper leak in NEET-UG 2024.
Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha on June 20 claimed that the arrested prime accused in the NEET "paper leak" is linked to officials associated with RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, and demanded an investigation into it.
Addressing a press conference in Patna, Mr. Sinha claimed that the official was in constant touch with Sikander Prasad Yadvendu, the arrested prime accused in the case.
“The official associated with Yadav used to arrange accommodation for Sikandar at guest houses in Patna and other places. I have details of messages which the official had sent to the persons concerned for arranging accommodation for Sikandar,” the Deputy Chief Minister said.
He said he has the mobile number from which those messages were sent.
Mr. Sinha said, "It needs to be thoroughly probed. Why is the RJD leader (Tejashwi Prasad) maintaining a stoic silence on this?"
