Focus on exams instead of making trends on twitter, says Shafqat Mehmood
The Federal Education Minister, Shafqat Mahmood has advised Pakistani students focus on exams instead of making trends on twitter.
During a Talk-show ‘Live with Adil Shahzeb‘, Shafqat talked about the issue created by students regarding the physical exams.
Mahmood said that exams have already started in Sindh and will also commence in Punjab from Friday so there is no possibility of papers being postponed or cancelled.
“Focus on exams instead of making trends on twitter. There is still time left for exam preparation.”
Earlier in June, Shaqfat Mehmood announced that exams of classes ninth, matric, first, and second-year would take place across the country after July 10.
Several problems arose last year when the government had decided not to conduct exams, the minister said speaking on the floor of the National Assembly during the budget session.
“But now, we have decided that no grades will be awarded without exams,” the education minister said. It is “unfortunate” that some called for no exams even now in parliament, he said.
Sindh, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, Gilgit-Baltistan, and all the other provinces had unanimously decided to conduct examinations.
