A comprehensive investigation into the anomalies surrounding the results of Board of Intermediate Education Karachi (BIEK) examinations has been conducted by a three-member committee appointed by Sindh’s caretaker minister, Justice (retired) Maqbool Baqar.
The inquiry was initiated in response to widespread dissatisfaction and protests stemming from a significant number of students failing their inter exams.
The committee’s findings, outlined in a detailed report, revealed extensive tampering in the results of English, Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Eight officers within the intermediate board of Karachi have been identified and held accountable for these irregularities.

As the situation unfolds, the Sindh government’s decisive action and the call for legal accountability underscore the seriousness with which the irregularities in the examination results are being addressed.
