The notification was issued following the approval of the provincial cabinet during its meeting held on April 15. According to the directive, students will receive 20% grace marks in Chemistry and 15% in both Physics and Mathematics.
The Karachi Board of Intermediate Education has been informed of the decision, and implementation instructions have been issued accordingly.
The notification, signed by Sharifuddin, Section Officer for Boards in the Department of Universities and Boards, directs the Chairman of the Intermediate Board Karachi to proceed with the necessary arrangements to apply the cabinet’s decision.
It is important to note that currently, the Karachi Intermediate Board does not have a permanent chairman. The position is temporarily held by the Chairman of the Karachi Matriculation Board.
The decision follows recommendations made by a special committee formed by the provincial cabinet, aimed at easing academic pressure on students and addressing disruptions to the education system.
