Sir: Annual examinations are held in sizzling summer every year. Why not take them in spring or winter? Load shedding coupled with overbearing heat during examinations makes life difficult for the students, as we are facing these days. Final examinations of the Punjab University are being held in the months of June and July. Students are unable to study because of 14 to 16 hours of load shedding even in major cities like Lahore, where the temperature remains above 45 C these days. Government has already turned its back on citizens who are surrounded by myriad problems. In spite of protests made by citizens, government has failed to solve the electricity issue and there seems no end to it. In such a situation, who will care about the future of the students who are the future of Pakistan? Educational boards and universities should rationally consider that we live in a country where summer is extremely hot and power outages are a bitter reality. NADIA EHSAN Lahore
