He pleaded that in Urdu paper, the BISE Lahore put a multiple-choice objective question about first President of Pakistan Muslim League (PML) and all four choices given below in the paper were totally wrong.

The students had no option but to drop the question due to the mistake and likewise happened in some other papers as well, adding woes of the students during the matriculation examination.
