I can show the increased portions,” counsel argued.

The top court is hearing nearly 40 pleas related to the alleged irregularities on National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (Undergraduate).

According to Live Law, the CJI told the petitioners: “You have to show us that the leak was so systemic and affected the entire examination so as to warrant the cancellation of the entire exam. The re-examination has to be on concrete footing that the sanctity of entire test was affected.”
