In a series of tweet he said why should these exams be postponed and students who have been studying be penalised.

Criticizing the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) for doing politics on the exam issue, the education minister said that they should know that after 18th amendment, out of 30 Boards, only one board, the federal board is under the federal government, yet they were pretending that one order from federal minister can stop exams across the country.

"No surprise that N league, which is breaking apart, is playing politics with students to gain cheap popularity. People like Ahsan Iqbal and Saad Rafique know that exams have already happened in Balochistan and Sindh, therefore other students cannot be treated differently," the minister wrote.

Lashing out at senior PML-N leaders Khawaja Saad Rafique and Ahsan Iqbal, who have been calling on the government to delay the exams in order to give students more time to prepare, he said that they should know if they claim to be educated that exams are the best measure of students ability.
