Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, speaking in the Rajya Sabha during the debate on the Public Examination (Amendment) Bill, 2026, said merely increasing fines, prescribing harsher punishments, setting up a Special Task Force and fast-track courts would not stop paper leaks. He argued that the key was to ensure leak-free examinations through better administration. Kharge said the Congress had demanded a stronger anti-paper leak law in 2024, but the government failed to act then. He also questioned who ordered the lathi-charge and use of pellet guns against protesting students and demanded Union Home Minister Amit Shah's resignation.
