Sindh IBCC established

KARACHI: The Sindh government has established a provincial level Inter-Board Committee of Chairmen (IBCC). 

The Sindh chief minister has approved the summary in this regard. Sindh government has appointed Chairman Secondary Board Education, Karachi, Professor Saeed uddin as first chairman of the IBCC for one year. After the establishment of IBCC now Sindh will issue certificates to A-Level and other foreign credentials. 

It may be recalled that Dr Asim Hussain decided to establish a Sindh IBCC when he was appointed chairman of Sindh Higher Education Commission. It was his brainchild but notification to establish Sindh IBCC was not issued because he was arrested. 

Acting Secretary Board Naveed Shaikh confirmed that Sindh chief minister approved the summary and notification in this regard had also been issued. It may be recalled that A-level and other foreign credentials were sent to Islamabad for certification and it took almost one month. One small office constituted in Inter Board Karachi. There three to four members including one 17-grade officer performed their duties to send credentials to Islamabad for certification but after the establishment of Sindh IBCC it will be easy for the students to get certificates.
