The release of this year's Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examination results in Bangladesh faces a probable delay. Education boards, citing recent unrest and other contributing factors, anticipate completing the result finalization process by July 28 or 29, missing the initially announced July 20 deadline.

Professor Syed Akhtaruzzaman, president of the Bangladesh Inter-Education Board Coordination Committee, confirmed the situation. "We were instructed to prepare the results by July 20, but could not complete the work for several reasons, including the recent unrest," he told The Daily Star. He added that the boards are working diligently to conclude the process within the next week.

The final decision on when the results will be officially published rests with the Ministry of Education. Earlier, on June 8, Education Minister ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milon had announced at a press conference that the results would be published on July 20, with authorities instructed to meet that timeline.

The written examinations for the SSC and equivalent levels commenced on April 21. The general education boards concluded their written exams on May 20, while the Dakhil and vocational examinations finished on May 24. A total of 1,857,344 candidates registered for these examinations across nine general education boards, the Bangladesh Madrasa Education Board, and the Bangladesh Technical Education Board.
