SSC exam to start on February 3

The government has deferred beginning of the Secondary School Certificate and equivalent examinations to February 3 from February 1.

The decision came amid the demand for deferral of the January 30 election to Dhaka city corporations that coincides with Saraswati Puja.  

Education Ministry’s Public Relations Officer Abul Khayar confirmed to The Daily Star that the SSC examinations will begin on February 3.

Education Minister Dipu Moni will brief the media over the issue soon, he said.
