NAWABSHAH/ LARKANA: The boards of intermediate and secondary education (BISE) of Shaheed Benazirabad and Larkana announced on Friday the postponement of the exams of the Higher Secondary Certificate Part-I & II due to road blockage by protesters in several areas.

Scheduled to be held from April 29, 2025, the exams would now commence from May 5, say notifications issued from the two boards.

According to the notification issued by the Shaheed Benazirabad board, the road blockages might hinder the smooth conduct of the examinations.
