Punjab's Secretary of Schools, Khalid Nazir Watto, has said that winter holidays will start on December 20 in the province.

The secretary of schools, in a statement, further said that the winter holidays would last until January 10, 2025.

Meanwhile, the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Rawalpindi has postponed intermediate practical exams scheduled for Monday as the federal government has announced a public holiday in the twin cities.

"New date for practical exams will be announced later," Controller Examinations Tanveer Asghar Awan said.

However, he said, practical exams in the other districts, except Rawalpindi, would be held as per the date sheet.

Practical exams for Intermediate's Physics, Health and Physical Education were to be held today.
