On 24 April 2026 the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Rawalpindi carried out intensive monitoring and inspections to ensure that the annual ninth class exams proceed under a strict zero tolerance framework. Following directives from the Chief Secretary Punjab and the provincial education minister, authorities have reinforced measures to deliver transparent and orderly examinations across the district.
Rawalpindi Board officials coordinated with district administration and police to provide full security at all examination centres while maintaining a conducive atmosphere for students. The Commissioner and the Chairman of the educational board personally supervised the overall arrangements to ensure effective coordination and smooth conduct of the examinations.
Deputy Secretary Higher Education Dr Saima Anwar visited multiple centres to review on-ground conditions, student facilities and adherence to the board’s zero tolerance policy. Detailed inspections covered seating plans, staff attendance, exam discipline and security arrangements, and relevant staff were given clear instructions to rectify any deficiencies immediately.
Tanveer Asghar Awan conducted inspections at several government schools including Government Boys High School Arzi (Khas), Government Boys High School Bikhral, Government Associate College for Women Balkasar, Government Boys High School Balkasar, Government Girls High School No 1 Talagang and Government Boys High School No 1 Talagang. He carefully checked implementation of exam SOPs and directed prompt action against any irregularity.
Efforts to strengthen performance included targeted professional training for examination staff and a defined division of responsibilities to boost accountability. Sensitive centres received special attention through enhanced on-site supervision and continuous inspections to deter malpractice and preserve exam integrity.
Real-time online monitoring from the Command and Control Center has been activated to watch exam activity across centres, allowing instant detection and response to any breach. These combined measures aim to reinforce the Rawalpindi Board commitment to a fair, merit-based and trustworthy examination system for 2026.
