Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

The Supreme Court-appointed High Powered Enquiry Committee (HPEC) investigating the July 2026 violence during anti-NEET paper leak protests has launched a portal for affected persons, including police personnel, to submit complaints. The portal, hpec.nic.in, allows complainants to keep their identities confidential if they wish. The committee will examine issues including the use of pellet guns, targeted violence, harassment of female protesters, and excessive violence or destruction of property from either side. The panel was set up following the Supreme Court's orders dated 18 August and 10 September 2026. Physical submissions are also accepted at the HPEC office at Shiksha Sadan in New Delhi between 2 pm and 4 pm on working days, or by email at hpec2026.enquiry@nic.in.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The Times of India and The Bengaluru Live both report the HPEC portal launch in neutral, agency-style language, with no editorial slant. Both outlets emphasise the same key points: the portal's confidentiality feature, the priority issues including pellet gun use and female protester harassment, and the submission channels. The coverage is uniform straight reporting, differing only in minor phrasing. The committee's next step is accepting submissions through the portal, the timeline for its report is not stated in either source.
