The Delhi government has announced that it will not pursue further adverse legal action against people involved in the NEET protest movement, although the relief does not apply to individuals with criminal antecedents. The NEET protest movement appears to have entered a new phase after activist Sonam Wangchuk welcomed the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Amendment Bill, 2026, calling it a positive step towards education reform. Meanwhile, Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) founder Abhijeet Dipke has intensified his criticism of the Centre, alleging that the crackdown on NEET protesters was ordered by Union Home Minister Amit Shah.
