The anti-paper-leak bill was in fact passed in Parliament in 2024. The video is correct that the bill was later linked to protests and that the NDA had a governing majority in the Lok Sabha, but it oversimplifies how Parliament works.
Claim-by-claim breakdown
False (97% confidence): The anti-paper-leak bill was not passed in Parliament. PIB and PRS report that the Lok Sabha passed the bill on February 6, 2024, the Rajya Sabha passed it on February 9, 2024, and it became the Public Examinations (Prevention of Unfair Means) Act, 2024.
Accurate (96% confidence): The same anti-paper-leak bill was already passed in 2024. Official and parliamentary tracking sources show the bill was introduced in February 2024, passed by Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, and enacted as the 2024 Act.
Accurate (77% confidence): The NDA government had enough seats in the Lok Sabha to pass legislation without needing opposition votes there. Reuters reported the NDA won 293 seats in the 543-member Lok Sabha, giving it a simple majority in the lower house. That does not mean every bill can pass without any broader parliamentary support, especially in the Rajya Sabha.
