Education matters: Hearing on B-form requirement put off
Petitioner claims B-form requirement was just a plot for asking money
“When the birth certificate already shows the origin and nationality of students, why is there a B-form requirement imposed on students?” Advocate Sheraz argued. The board’s counsel sought time from the court to explain the policy on the matter. PHOTO: EXPRESS
LAHORE:
The Lahore High Court has sought further evidence on a petition calling for allowing students to sit in Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education exams without their B-form from the National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA).
On Wednesday, LHC Judge Ayesha A Malik adjourned the hearing on the petition after asking the petitioner’s counsel, Advocate Sheraz Zaka, for submitting further arguments on November 9.
Petitioner Tahir Khan had submitted the education board authorities should be inquired over the mandatory requirement for a NADRA B-form, which had not been imposed by any law or notification.
He claimed the B-form requirement was just a plot for asking money.
“When the birth certificate already shows the origin and nationality of students, why is there a B-form requirement imposed on students?” Advocate Sheraz argued. The board’s counsel sought time from the court to explain the policy on the matter.
