NEET Paper Leak Investigation Takes Dramatic Turn as Former Whistleblower Arrested

In a dramatic twist to the NEET UG 2026 paper leak investigation, chemistry teacher popularly known as “M Sir”, has been arrested by the CBI for his alleged role in the scandal. The arrest has stunned students across Maharashtra because just two years ago, he had publicly positioned himself as a voice for NEET aspirants during the 2024 paper leak controversy.

A resurfaced video from 2024 shows him demanding justice for students and claiming that a “grave injustice” had been inflicted upon children preparing for NEET. In the video, he announced that he had filed a PIL before the Aurangabad Bench of the Bombay High Court seeking action over alleged irregularities in NEET 2024, reports NDTV.

The CBI arrested 'M Sir' after allegedly recovering a leaked NEET UG 2026 question paper from his mobile phone during searches at his premises. Founder of Renukai Chemistry Classes (RCC), he has built a massive coaching network across Maharashtra, with nearly 40,000 students enrolling annually. Known for his chemistry notes and competitive exam coaching, “M Sir” had gained a strong social media following and was widely regarded as a mentor figure among NEET and JEE aspirants before his arrest shocked the education community.
