The CBI has filed a third chargesheet in connection with the alleged leak of the NEET-UG exam paper, an official said on Saturday.

In the chargesheet submitted to a special court, the CBI has named 21 individuals as accused. The agency has alleged that trunks containing NEET-UG 2024 question papers were delivered to the Oasis School in Hazaribagh and stored in a control room on the morning of May 5. Principal Ahsanul Haque and vice-principal Imtiaz Alam permitted Pankaj Kumar, the mastermind, to access the control room where the trunks were kept, it alleged.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
