Officials at the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Hyderabad have concluded that 43 students admitted to Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences (LUMHS) in Jamshoro handed in altered Intermediate mark sheets. The finding comes from a verification ordered by the Sindh High Court, and it puts the BISE Hyderabad fake mark sheets issue at the centre of questions about medical admissions. Of the 48 records checked, only five were genuine.
How the discrepancy came to light
The matter began with a petition before the Sindh High Court (SHC), the provincial high court, filed by a female candidate who scored 150 out of 180 marks in the MDCAT 2026, the entrance test for medical and dental colleges. She challenged discrepancies in another applicant's Intermediate results. According to the petition, that candidate had secured 869 marks in the Intermediate Examination 2026, but a mark sheet dated August 19, 2026 showed 930 marks, a difference of 61 marks.
A division bench of Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon and Justice Mohammad Jaffer Raza directed the authorities to investigate and resolve the discrepancy under the relevant regulations. The bench also said that affected students must have an opportunity to present their position before any decision on their eligibility is taken.
What the verification found
After the court's orders, the LUMHS director of admissions asked the BISE Hyderabad controller of examinations to verify the records urgently. The verification showed that only five of the 48 mark sheets were authentic, while the remaining 43 had been tampered with, officials confirmed. In simple terms, 43 of the 48 records, or about 90 per cent, were found altered.
The case concerns LUMHS Jamshoro admissions, where places are awarded on the basis of entrance test scores combined with academic records. Because eligibility depends on those records, the verification went to the heart of the admission process.
What happens next
The court has directed that the discrepancy be resolved without delay, and that any decision affecting a candidate's eligibility be based on official records. Students named in the verification are to be given a hearing before a decision is made. Further steps in the BISE Hyderabad fake mark sheets matter will depend on those hearings and on the regulations the court referred to.
