PT News, New Delhi, May 22

The CBI has arrested another key accused who was the source of the NEET-UG 2026 Physics question paper leak. Manisha Sanjay Havaldar, currently employed at Seth Hiralal Saraf Prashala, Pune, was arrested after thorough interrogation by CBI. The agency said Havaldar was involved in the NEET-UG 2026 process and was appointed as an expert by National Testing Agency (NTA). She had full access to the Physics question papers. In April 2026, she shared several questions from the Physics section of the exam with co-accused Manisha Mandhare, who was arrested on May 16. The questions she shared matched those in the NEET-UG 2026 Physics question paper sets.
