LAHORE, Dec 01 (APP): The matriculation examination for 2.5 million students across Punjab is likely to be held after Ramazan, according to sources within the Education Department.
The proposal to conduct the exams after Ramazan next year is currently under consideration, with the Education Department reviewing it based on suggestions from the provincial education minister.
Eid-ul-Fitr is expected to fall on March 19 or 20 next year, with the fasting month of Ramazan beginning around February 18. The Lahore Board alone has more than 300,000 students scheduled to sit for the exams.
Teachers have voiced support for the move, noting that students often struggle to prepare adequately when exams are held during Ramazan. Many believe that holding the exams after Eid-ul-Fitr would give students a better chance to prepare and perform well.
