In a significant move to respect the religious sentiments of the Christian community, the Sindh government has officially banned all examinations from April 2 to April 6, 2026, coinciding with Holy Week and Easter. This decision was made following a request from Reverend Father Mario A Rodrigues, Principal of St Patrick’s High School Karachi, and was directed by the Chief Minister of Sindh. Provincial Minister for Universities, Muhammad Ismail Rahu, emphasized the importance of this decision, stating, "This change of exam dates is a step towards promoting interfaith harmony and ensuring that minority students and teachers can observe their religious practices without conflict." This initiative reflects a growing recognition of the diverse religious landscape in the region and aims to foster inclusivity within the educational system.
