The education ministry will decide on the schedule of Thursday’s SSC and its equivalent examinations tomorrow.

Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid made the declaration at a press conference at the secretariat this morning.

Till date, this year’s examinations are being held on Fridays and Saturdays on security ground because of the ongoing hartals and blockades enforced by the BNP-led 20-party alliance.
In the latest development, the 20-party alliance has extended its ongoing hartal till 6:00am Friday.
