Bangladesh has announced that it will offer 500 new scholarships to talented students from Pakistan. This step is being seen as an important move to bring the two countries closer and to promote stronger relations between them through education and cooperation.
The announcement was made during a meeting held in Lahore, where Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif welcomed Bangladesh’s Minister for Religious Affairs, Dr. Khalid Hussain. Also attending the meeting were PML-N President Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and the High Commissioner of Bangladesh, H.E. MD Iqbal Hussain Khan.
During the meeting, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz highlighted Bangladesh’s achievements in several important fields. She praised the country’s progress in the garment industry, microfinance projects, and women’s empowerment programs, noting that these areas have played a vital role in Bangladesh’s social and economic development.
She also shared Punjab’s interest in working with Bangladesh on projects related to clean and renewable energy, flood control, and sustainable farming. According to her, these areas of cooperation could help both countries deal with shared challenges and open the door to long-term partnerships that would benefit their people.
The new scholarships from Bangladesh are expected to provide Pakistani students with valuable opportunities to continue their higher education, gain international exposure, and contribute to their country’s development after completing their studies. Leaders on both sides expressed hope that this initiative will help deepen the friendship and understanding between Pakistan and Bangladesh.
