The Sindh Assembly’s parliamentary committee has decided to award grace marks to first-year intermediate students in Karachi who failed their annual exams.
This decision follows a report from a fact-finding committee, led by Dr. Sarosh Lodi, which raised concerns regarding the procedures and administrative structure of the Board of Intermediate Education Karachi (BIEK).
The Sindh Assembly’s parliamentary committee held a meeting regarding Karachi Inter students’ exam probe.
After the committee’s meeting, Sindh Education Minister Syed Sardar Ali Shah stated that the fact-finding committee, headed by Dr. Sarosh Lodi, had submitted an investigation report on the first-year exam results of BIEK. The report questioned several aspects of the board’s procedures and administration.
In light of the findings, Sardar Shah announced that grace marks would be granted to students who had failed their exams.
He emphasized that there was clear evidence of injustice toward these students, pointing out that their matriculation marks were good but had significantly decreased in their first-year results.
