Bihar withdraws 64 FIRs against NEET protesters, 21 cases in Siwan persist

The Bihar government has withdrawn 64 First Information Reports filed against protesters who demonstrated against the NEET medical entrance examination. However, criminal cases against 21 individuals in Siwan district remain active.

The NEET protests erupted across Bihar following widespread irregularities and cancellation of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). The withdrawal of most FIRs reflects the government's attempt to ease tensions, though selective cases in Siwan continue to be pursued.
