KARACHI (HRNW) Board of Intermediate Education, Karachi (BIEK) Chairman Prof Nasim Ahmed Memon on Wednesday said that the exams will start from June 1.
In a statement, he said that the intermediate exams will take place from June 1 as it is not possible to hold them from May 28.
The BIEK chairman said that it was not possible to hold matric and intermediate exams in the same centres at the same time.
Memon said that the board has sought permission from the education minister to extend the exams for four days. He said that the inter exams were to be held in the centres in morning while matric exams were scheduled for the evening.
