Students who say give more time can appear in supplementary exams, advises Shafqat Mahmood
Federal Education Minister Shafqat Mahmood Friday advised the students who are asking for more time for exam preparation to appear in supplementary exams— scheduled after 2-3 months by all boards.
Taking to Twitter, the education minister in response to PML-N leaders Khawaja Saad Rafique and Ahsan Iqbal said, “Those students who say give more time can always appear in supplementary exams taken 2/3 months by all boards. Why should these exams be postponed and students who have been studying be penalised.”
The Federal Minister for Education questioned that why the examinations should be postponed and why the students who are preparing should be penalised.
Further, he wrote: “Exams are starting tomorrow in the remaining provinces and federating units. Wish all students taking exams from tomorrow the very best. Inshallah all will do well.”
In response to MNAs he said, parliamentarians should also know that after the 18th amendment, out of 30 Boards, only one board, the federal board is under the federal government.
