HYDERABAD:
As controversy over alleged corruption and falsification in examination results surrounds the Mirpurkhas Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education, the board has released a list of 2,539 candidates who gained undue favor in results between 2021 and 2025. Chairman of the board, Colonel (R) Dr. Muhammad Alamdar, informed in a press release on Saturday that in view of the revelations about widespread manipulation of exam results exams, they are publishing a list of candidates who got marks and certificates through undue favour.
The eight-page press release contains the annual seat numbers of senior secondary education and secondary education students who passed the exams and received academic certificates from the board from 2021 to 2025. According to it, fake registrations, registrations and other documents were also produced to accept candidates. He informed that the board canceled the academic certificates issued to those candidates whose seat numbers were listed. He asked these students to reveal the names of officials of BISE Mirpurkhas and schools and colleges who played with their future by helping them obtain qualifications and certificates illegally.
The affected students had 30 days to present their objections to the control exams. Although the Mirpurkhas junta has been facing allegations of corruption and favoritism for many years, the recent arrest of secret branch staff Azam Khan and the related suspension of more than half a dozen officials, including former controller Anwar Aleem Khanzada, have laid bare the situation.
Khanzada, son of MQM-P MP Abdul Aleem Khanzada, who was president of BISE Mirpurkhas, is at the center of the controversy. He was suspended from his position as controller of examinations on March 9.
