The British Council on Tuesday cancelled all Cambridge examinations scheduled for Wednesday, May 10, 2023, amid an emergency situation in the country, following the arrest of former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan.

“Due to the sudden developing situation in the country, British Council has cancelled all Cambridge International, Pearson, University of London & IELTS exams scheduled across Pakistan on Wednesday, 10 May,” the British Council said in a statement.

“For exams sessions scheduled for 11 & 12 May, we will update on their status on our social media channels tomorrow,” it added.

The development comes amid violent protests all over the country against the arrest of the PTI chief.

Earlier, All Pakistan Private Schools Federation (APPSF) President Kashif Mirza announced that schools across the country will remain closed amid the emergency situation following Imran’s arrest.

“In view of the emergency situation, private schools across the country will be closed tomorrow, May 10,” he said in a statement.

Mirza said a further announcement of the private school regular classes schedule will be released after consultation tomorrow.

He appealed to students, teachers, staff and parents to be calm and cautious in view of the emergency situation.

Imagine a country like Pakistan, bankrupt in democracy, economy, and security, talking to heads of world about Kashmir liberation... and these heads of nations are scratching their heads wondering "Are you kidding me man, where are your priorities!"

@Tulukan Mairandi, Incorrect, they never had hope, so there was nothing to give up. Only China had some hope, and they too have become frustrated. Pakistan has just become a leech on china, and nothing else. It has not returned any economic benefits other than paying hefty interest rates

....and this country thought...they could get kashmir, make CPEC the envy of the world, do that, do this... nothing nada. Pakistan had it coming, but they will never learn, and they will keep going from one crisis to another. This is not the end.

@TimeToMovveOn, You can't be more right. Every single person wonders, why is the government trying to increase its power instead of working for the betterment of the economy. They are more interested in imprisoning the opposition. Pakistan needs a government which cares about the people.
