Delayed publication

The publication of this year’s SSC results has taken comparatively longer than in previous years, with the authorities also changing the initially announced date.

At a press conference at the Secretariat on 8 June, Education Minister ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milon had initially announced that the SSC and equivalent examination results would be published on 20 July.

Later, authorities said the results could not be published on that date as preparations had not been completed.

The press release announcing the final date was issued by the Bangladesh Inter-Education Board Coordination Committee on 6 August and signed by Professor Syed Aktaruzzaman, chairman of the committee and chairman of the Dhaka Education Board.
