The annual FA and FSc examinations started across Punjab under the supervision of nine education boards, including the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Rawalpindi.

Chairman BISE Rawalpindi, Muhammad Adnan Khan, along with Controller of Examinations Tanveer Asghar Awan, visited several examination centres to inspect the arrangements.

On the first day, papers in Psychology, Food and Nutrition, Military Science, and Home Economics were conducted.

A total of 185 examination centres have been established in the Rawalpindi Division, with over 1,762 staff members deployed for the smooth conduct of the examinations.

Under Section 144, entry of unrelated persons into the examination centres has been completely prohibited.

To ensure examination transparency, CCTV cameras have been installed in all the centres, which are being monitored online.

Strict action will be taken against fake candidates, who can be punished with UMC cases, fines and detention.

Separate control rooms monitor the examination system in each district, while the central control room is fully functional in the board office.

The district administration is fully supportive, and the lists of examination staff have been provided to the special branch.
