New aspects are continuously emerging in the investigation of NEET paper leak case. According to sources associated with the investigating agencies, accused Shivraj Motegaonkar and his associated network are accused of working in a very systematic and professional manner. According to initial information, students were reportedly identified on the basis of financial status and paying capacity and then parents were contacted.
Shivraj’s network worked on guarantee model
According to sources, parents were assured about the selection of their children and deals worth up to lakhs of rupees were allegedly made. This amount is said to start from Rs 5 lakh and reach Rs 30 lakh or more. Sources associated with the investigation claim that in some cases the parents were even ready to give blank cheques. Reportedly, a token amount was initially charged and the rest was paid after the examination completed the matching of questions.
Parents were ready to spend huge amount
Agency sources also say that after the examination, some parents had complained that there were differences in some parts of the so-called question bank provided to them and the actual question paper, especially in the Physics subject. According to an official associated with the investigation, children of many doctors were also studying in such institutions and the parents’ expectations regarding entry into the medical field were very high. For this reason some people were ready to spend huge amounts of money. The investigating agencies are now also investigating the role of people who are suspected of allegedly buying the paper.
Questions raised on old results of Latur also
After this matter came to light, discussions regarding the pre-examination results of Latur have also intensified.

Of these, 376 students had scored more than 650 marks, while 25 students had scored above 700 marks. Five students had secured more than 710 marks.
