School admission through lottery, which was supposed to begin on Wednesday for the first time in the situation due to Covid-19 pandemic, has been suspended.
The lottery and the application process, supposed to be done online in some 683 government schools across the country from class one to class nine, were suspended after the Directorate of Secondary and Higher Education issued a circular on Tuesday.
The scheduled lottery has been temporarily suspended as a writ petition related to the ‘digital lottery system’ was pending with the High Court, said Director General Syed Md Golam Faruk in the circular issued by the education ministry.
The fresh schedule for the digital lottery will be issued soon by the ministry, the circular mentioned.
