Above all, the decision of ‘no exam’ has brought smiles on many gloomy faces. On the one hand, people are happy about no exam; but on another hand, some people are angry about the ending of the lockdown. They fear a rise in COVID-19 cases. To conclude, students across Pakistan are celebrating the decision of the PTI government; and, admiring PM Imran Khan along with Minister of Education, Shafqat Mehmood.
