In a recent announcement, the Punjab Boards Committee of Chairmen (PBCC) has rescheduled the 9th class board exams of all educational boards in Punjab that were previously postponed. All boards of Punjab were initially conducting the 9th board exams according to the scheduled exam dates, but due to recent political chaos, the PBBC decided to postpone the exams. Now, the PBCC has announced the new dates for those three board exams that were postponed. All students can access the 9th class revised date sheet for all educational boards in Punjab from this page. All educational boards of Punjab will also send date sheet updates to their candidates through SMS.
Why Were the Exams Postponed?

Despite the board issuing the date sheet, the exams were ultimately postponed due to the political chaos in the country. The political situation within the country, such as the arrest of Imran Khan, the chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, had caused a great deal of uncertainty, which led to the respective educational boards making the decision to cancel the exams in order to ensure the safety of the students. Now that the situation is under control, the PBCC has decided to conduct the postponed exams. All students will be able to give their 9th class papers at the already allotted examination centers according to their groups with old roll number slips. New/revised roll number slips can also be downloaded from the respective board's website.
