The Inter-Education Board Examination Controllers’ Committee has instructed all examination centers to maintain maximum caution in receiving, storing, sending, and distributing question papers for the ongoing HSC Examination 2026. The directive, signed by Professor Jesmin Taslima Banu, convener of the committee and controller of examinations at the Dhaka Education Board, was issued on Tuesday. It was also communicated to all education board controllers and relevant government offices.

According to the notice, the directive aims to ensure the integrity, transparency, and confidentiality of the HSC examination process. Officials have been told to strictly monitor every stage of question paper handling—from receipt to distribution in the exam hall. No extra question papers are to be provided in exam rooms, and any unused papers must be immediately secured following prescribed procedures. Under no circumstances may question papers or their parts be taken outside the examination hall.

All officers, invigilators, and responsible personnel have been urged to follow the instructions rigorously to maintain the security and fairness of the examination process.
