The Junior School Certificate (JSC) and Junior Dakhil Certificate (JDC) examinations slated for Sunday (Nov) 2 and Monday (Nov 3) have been rescheduled for November 7 and 14 respectively due to hartal called by Jamaat-e-Islami.
Education secretary Nazrul Islam Khan announced this at a press briefing at his Mintoo Road residence on Thursday.
He said Sunday’s Bangla 1st paper examination of JSC examinees will be held from 9 am to 12 pm on November 7 while Monday’s Bangla 2nd paper examination will be held from 9 to 11 am on November 14.
Besides, the JDC examinees’ Quran Majid and Tasbid examinations will be held on November 7 while their A’t-tawhid-ul-Fikah and Aqayed and Fikah exams will be held on November 14.
The examinations of Junior School Certificate (JSC) and Junior Dakhil Certificate (JDC) were scheduled to begin across the country on November 2.
A total of 2,090,692 students — 1,764,595 from schools and 3,26,097 from madrasahs — will sit for the examinations from 27,925 institutions throughout the country.
Hours after the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT)-1 condemned Jamaat ameer Nizami to death for crimes against humanity during the 1971 Liberation War on Wednesday, the Islamist party announced a 72-hour staggered nationwide shutdown programme.
