Matric Board Chairman Ghulam Hussain has issued strict new directives to protect the privacy and dignity of female students. The orders cover the ongoing 9th and 10th class examinations. They aim to create a respectful and secure environment at all girls examination centers.
The new orders address concerns around how staff treat female candidates at examination centers. Authorities issued these directives while matric exams are actively underway across the region.
Key Directives Issued by the Matric Board
The board has strictly prohibited staff from asking female candidates to remove their veils. This ban covers burqas and abayas. No female student should face pressure related to her religious or cultural dress during exams.
Chairman Ghulam Hussain warned that the board will take strict action against any staff member who forces female students to remove their veils. This warning signals a firm and uncompromising stance from the board.
Moreover, the chairman directed that no male invigilators should work at girls examination centers. This step reinforces the board’s commitment to student privacy and comfort. It also removes a long standing concern that many parents and students have raised over the years.
Authorities further confirmed that girls examination centers have reported zero cheating complaints so far. Therefore, these new directives focus entirely on dignity and safety rather than any disciplinary issue.
Why These Directives Matter
These orders matter greatly for thousands of female students sitting matric exams across the region. Many families feel more confident sending their daughters to exam centers when they know the environment is safe and respectful.

Furthermore, removing male invigilators from girls centers directly addresses privacy concerns that communities have raised for years. Consequently, these measures are likely to receive strong public support from families that prioritize female student dignity.
The board also sends a clear message to all examination staff about expected conduct. Any violation of these directives will bring serious consequences. As matric exams continue, students, parents, and educators will watch closely to see how well authorities implement these new orders on the ground.
