The Sindh government has suspended three officials of the Karachi Matriculation Board following allegations of widespread cheating during ongoing examinations. According to officials, the action was taken after reports surfaced indicating irregularities and possible facilitation of cheating at certain exam centers.
The suspended individuals are believed to be responsible for supervision and administration of the examination process. The provincial education authorities have ordered an inquiry to investigate the extent of malpractice, including whether organized cheating networks were involved. Officials said strict action would be taken against anyone found guilty.
The move comes amid growing concerns over exam transparency and fairness in Karachi, with parents and students calling for stronger monitoring and accountability.
The Sindh education department reiterated its commitment to ensuring merit-based examinations and warned that no negligence or corruption would be tolerated. Further developments are expected once the inquiry report is completed.
