In a recent incident, both the Federal and Rawalpindi education boards have postponed all ongoing examinations due to the Punjab government’s late-night decision to close all educational institutions on October 18th, 2024. The decision affects all public and private colleges and universities across the province.

The provincial authorities issued a formal notice declaring the holiday, forcing the education boards to postpone all scheduled exams for the day. As a result, students set to take their exams right now face delays, with the boards working to reschedule the affected exams.

Officials from both the Federal and Rawalpindi education boards have reinforced students and parents that new exam dates will be announced shortly. They also affirmed their commitment to minimizing disruptions to the academic calendar while adhering to the government’s orders.

The protests have caused significant disruptions to the academic routine, forcing the government to take immediate action to ensure public safety and restore calm to educational institutions.

The academic routine has been significantly disrupted by the disturbances, necessitating urgent action by the government to ensure public safety and restore normal operations in educational institutions.
