KARACHI: The Sindh Education Department on Monday announced an investigation of irregularities in this year’s matric results issued by the Board of Secondary Education Karachi (BSEK) after thousands of students received the same marks, raising concerns for possible manipulation in the results.
If 902 marks were given to a batch of supposedly 10 students last year, this year, too, a batch received the exact same scores.
Imran Butt, BSEK Examinations Controller, has said that the board will look into the matter and take due action against those responsible.
“If anyone is found involved, we will take action,” he added.
Butt also assured that the investigation report will be presented to the higher authorities.
According to details 407 students were awarded 999 marks, while 885 students were given 888 marks.
Meanwhile, 839 students received 901 marks, 907 students received 877, and 912 students were given 905.
At least 912 students got 904 marks, while 894 students were granted 880 marks in their matriculation exams.
The Secondary School Certificate (SSC) Part-II annual examination results for Science Group, General Group, and deaf and mute candidates were announced last week.
The female students were ahead of the boys, as they excelled in almost all the top positions across three distinct groups.
