LAHORE: The Lahore Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) has postponed papers of intermediate annual examinations due to the upcoming by-election.

The board postponed the intermediate papers of chemistry, geology, health and physical education, statistics and library science scheduled for April 20 and English for April 22.

The decision to postpone these papers was made on the direction of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) as their schedule clashed with the date of the by-election (April 21).

The BISE rescheduled the dates of the above mentioned papers for May 23 (Thursday) and May 25 (Saturday).

PU: Punjab University Vice Chancellor Prof Dr Khalid Mahmood says it is a big challenge for universities to produce skilled youth according to the need of emerging trends in the relevant fields to address employment issues.
