For the eighth time, the government was forced to defer two more Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and its equivalent examinations due to a fresh
72-hour countrywide hartal called by 20-party alliance, beginning from this morning (Sunday).
The examinations scheduled for Sunday and Tuesday will now be held on February 28 and March 6 respectively. Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid said this at a press briefing at his official residence at Hair Road in the city on Saturday.
The examination on February 28 will be held between 10:00am and 1:00pm while the March 6 test from 9:00am to 12:00pm.
Earlier, the dates of examinations were changed on February 2, 4, 8, 10, 12, 15 and 18 for the same reasons.
