A Delhi fast-track court has reserved its order on taking cognisance of the CBI’s 20,000-page chargesheet against 13 accused in the NEET-UG paper leak case. Further arguments are listed for August 10. The court also warned defence lawyers to attend hearings at 10am sharp after one counsel arrived 11 minutes late. The CBI opposed Mangilal and Vikas Biwal’s plea for polygraph tests, saying its investigation was complete and all incriminating evidence had been collected. Defence counsel AP Singh argued that the tests could reveal further names, including among NTA officials. The Times of India reports that the court will next consider arguments on charges.
