Balochistan’s Chief Minister, Sarfraz Ahmed Bugti, made a groundbreaking announcement of a new graduate scholarship specifically for Baloch students at Oxford University. This landmark decision was revealed during the prestigious annual dinner of the Oxford Pakistan Programme (OPP) Endowment Fund in Oxford, UK.
