All remaining Higher Secondary Certificate (HSC) and equivalent examinations under the Chattogram Education Board have been postponed indefinitely due to the post-flood situation in the region.
The decision was announced on Thursday (16 July) in a notice issued by the Inter-Education Board Coordination Committee.

Revised examination schedules would be announced later through a separate notice.
