Dhaka University lifts ban on Pakistani students
Dhaka University (DU) has officially lifted its ban on admitting students from Pakistan, marking a significant policy shift aimed at fostering academic cooperation between the two nations.
The decision was made during a syndicate meeting chaired by Vice-Chancellor Professor Niaz Ahmad Khan on November 13, said Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Admin) Prof Sayma Haque Bidisha.
Under the revised policy, Pakistani students will be allowed to enroll at Dhaka University, and Bangladeshi students will also have the opportunity to pursue higher education in Pakistan.
University officials expect that the move will strengthen collaboration in education, culture and other areas of mutual interest.
