Punjab exam boards remain headless
The process to appoint permanent chairpersons of the Boards of Intermediate and Secondary Learning (BISE) across Punjab has been initiated but there is also a scarcity of representatives serving at other top administrative posts of the boards.
The continued absence of permanent controllers of examinations and secretaries in several boards has affected their administrative structure. The leadership and administrative gap has raised questions about the efficiency of the territory's examination system.
According to sources, Punjab School Learning Secretary Rana Sikandar Hayat is supervising the recruitment process and conducting interviews.
The sources stated more than 250 candidates had applied for the posts of chairperson and over 200 of them had been interviewed.
The process is expected to conclude after a second round of interviews of shortlisted candidates.
Punjab has nine learning boards of Lahore, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Gujranwala, Sargodha, Bahawalpur, Dera Ghazi Khan and Sahiwal.
