The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Hyderabad has found that 43 students who secured admission to Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences (LUMHS), Jamshoro, had submitted tampered Intermediate mark sheets. The irregularities were discovered during verification ordered by the Sindh High Court (SHC) following a dispute over admission eligibility.
The court ordered verification of the academic records of 48 students after a female candidate, who scored 150 out of 180 marks in MDCAT 2026, challenged discrepancies in another applicant’s Intermediate results. According to the petition, a candidate identified as Fariha had originally secured 869 marks in the Intermediate Examination 2026, but her mark sheet dated August 19 showed 930 marks, reflecting a difference of 61 marks.
A division bench comprising Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon and Justice Mohammad Jaffer Raza directed the authorities to investigate the matter and resolve the discrepancies according to relevant regulations. The court also instructed officials to give affected students an opportunity to present their position before making any decision regarding their eligibility.
Following the court’s orders, the LUMHS director of admissions requested urgent verification from the BISE Hyderabad controller of examinations. The board’s findings revealed that only five of the 48 mark sheets were authentic, while the remaining 43 had been tampered with, raising serious concerns about the medical university admission process.
