Karachi Board did not issue admit cards, jeopardizing the future of millions of students

The Karachi Matric Board has put the future of over 350,000 students at risk by failing to issue admit cards and finalize examination centers, despite exams having already commenced. This crisis stems from severe administrative incompetence and internal disputes between high-ranking officials over center fixation, leading to the removal of a controller and a subsequent administrative halt. Efforts to distribute admit cards via a digital portal also failed due to technical glitches, resulting in a three-day postponement of exams and widespread chaos at the board's office. Thousands of students and parents are facing significant mental distress and uncertainty, prompting Sindh Education Boards Minister Muhammad Ismail Rahoo to demand an urgent explanation from the board's chairman within three days. The situation highlights critical institutional failures that threaten the academic progress of a massive student population.
