The Higher Education Commission (#HEC) has requested all provinces to earmark special allocations for students from Balochistan. This will build upon HEC’s dedicated programme of support for Baloch students as well as students from remote and less developed regions of the country.
Besides allocated quota for students from Balochistan in all the general scholarship schemes of HEC, special programmes have been initiated, which have resulted in the award of 4523 need-based scholarships, 3000 Ehsaas scholarships, 227 overseas scholarships, 332 indigenous scholarships and placement of 300 students in medical colleges every year
