Bangladesh Religious Affairs Adviser Dr AFM Khalid visited the Standing Committee on Scientific and Technological Cooperation Centre during his Thursday trip to Islamabad. The adviser requested the Organization of Islamic Cooperation's assistance for enhancing Halal certification operations within Bangladesh's borders. Turkish and Saudi Arabian authorities currently provide support to the Islamic Foundation of Bangladesh for these certification processes. Dr Khalid asked for expanded technical assistance to improve the skills of Bangladeshi personnel working in this sector. He also endorsed creating a Halal Institute in Uganda under OIC supervision.

The adviser expressed gratitude for the 100 educational scholarships granted to Bangladeshi students at Lahore University through OIC programs. He suggested expanding these academic opportunities for madrasha students who possess strong foundations in Quran and Hadith studies. These students could contribute significantly to medical, technological, and engineering fields according to Dr Khalid. He emphasized the importance of Muslim unity for advancing Islamic interests worldwide. Bangladesh High Commissioner Md Iqbal Hossain Khan and other diplomatic officials accompanied the adviser during his Pakistan visit.
