Reopening of SSC centre demanded


Several hundred former students of Government Jubilee High School and guardians on Thursday brought out a procession and held a meeting here demanding reinstatement of the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) examination centre and removal of six guilty teachers.

Among others, GM Zafar, Jahangir Sikder, Rezaul Karim, Saiful Islam, Mahfuzul Islam, Tanvir Rahman, Kibiria Mahmud and Ruhul Amin Rasel addressed the meeting.

Following a complaint filed with the Barisal board chairman by the father of an examinee, Maksudur Rahman last year, the board disciplinary committee cancelled the examination centre for five years. The complainant alleged forgery in his son's SSC mark sheet involving six schoolteachers in the crime.
