Neet paper leak: Court extends judicial custody of two accused till July 11

A Delhi court on Wednesday extended the judicial custody of two accused, including the alleged kingpin and a coaching centre founder, till July 11 in the NEET paper leak case. The alleged kingpin P V Kulkarni, and Renukai Career Centre (RCC) founder Shivraj Raghunath Motegaonkar were produced physically before Special Judge Ajay Gupa in the afternoon.

Delhi HC directs Centre to restore Cockroach Janta Party's X account

The Delhi High Court on Tuesday ordered unblocking of the Cockroach Janta Party's X handle, which was withheld in May. Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma passed the judgement on a petition filed by Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke against the Centre's blocking order. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta submitted that the CJP's social media handle was blocked to avoid "chaos" among students and parents ahead of the June 21 NEET re-test. "Since NEET is already over, the primary concern is no longer of any relevance. In these circumstances, the order is revoked. The petition is allowed," Justice Sharma ordered. The original X handle of the CJP, which started as a satirical digital outfit on May 15 following a controversy over Chief Justice of India Surya Kant's remarks, was withheld in India on May 21. Soon after, the group resurfaced with a new handle, 'Cockroach is Back', which presently has over 2,27,000 followers. The movement has drawn attention for its unconventional ...
