The United Arab Emirates (EAU) have announced a scholarship program to provide higher education opportunities to Baluchistan students.
The students were selected after written exams from several Baluchistan districts. Among the 25 selected students, 5 are women. Scholarship receptors will continue their education in some of the best educational institutions in the EAU.
The objective of this scholarship is to provide the young people of Pakistan, especially Baluchistan, the opportunity to receive education worldwide. The scholarship receptors expressed their gratitude to the governments of Pakistan and the EAU, as well as the Pakistan army, for providing them with this educational opportunity.
The students mentioned that this scholarship marks a significant milestone on their educational trip, and plan to take this opportunity to bring pride to their country and province.
Previously, the Sindh government has announced scholarships for six deserving students to study at the University of Oxford, marking a significant step in the Benazir Bhutto postgraduate scholarship.
The announcement occurred after a memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed in London, officially facilitating these opportunities.
The MOU was signed in the presence of Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, president of the Popular Party of Pakistan (PPP), who highlighted the importance of education and empowerment during the ceremony.
Prime Minister Murad Ali Shah revealed that three students and three women from Sindh would receive these scholarships annually, in collaboration with Oxford Pakistan.
Previously, Punjab Prime Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif approved the expansion of the Honhaar scholarship scheme for students from other provinces.
