The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) arrested Shivraj Raghunath Motegaonkar, director of the Renukai Chemistry Classes, in connection with the NEET-UG 2026 question paper leak. The arrest took place at his residence in Latur, Maharashtra, and is part of a broader investigation that has already seen multiple arrests linked to the case.

Coverage diverges in the emphasis and framing of the story. The Hindustan Times highlights Motegaonkar's self-identification as a "visionary educator," which adds a personal angle to the narrative. In contrast, The Hindu focuses on the specifics of the evidence, noting that a leaked question paper was found on Motegaonkar's phone, while the Times of India emphasizes the broader implications of the leak, mentioning the circulation of questions through coaching networks.

What's missing from all outlets is a detailed exploration of the potential impact of the leak on students and the integrity of the examination process. This omission may reflect a blind spot in understanding the broader educational ramifications of such incidents.
