O' and A' level examinations started from the first week of May. On an average 6,000 students from English medium schools were appearing in this exams. It is evident that during every session there was absence of suitable sitting arrangements for parents/guardians coming with their children at the exam venues. This particular complaint had been conveyed to the British Council authorities but they felt reluctant to respond. There are different exam venues across Dhaka city where accommodation wasn't there initially but later they provided it, but it is surprising that British Council itself compelled parents/guardians to sit on roadside pavements, not giving attention to this issue.

How long will the British Council authorities take to comprehend this problem of ours?
