Two
Pakistani students would receive scholarships annually at the prestigious
Lincoln’s Inn from next year. The Bestway Group and Rangoonwala Foundation will
fund one scholarship each, says a press release received from London here
today.
Sir
Anwar Pervez and Asif Rangoonwala made the offer on the occasion of
installation of the Bust of Quaid-i-Azam at the Lincoln’s Inn Library on 29
November 2017. H.E. Syed Ibne Abbas, the High Commissioner, announced this
offer in his address at the installation ceremony.
The Rt
Hon Lord Neuberger of Abbotsbury, Treasurer of the Lincoln's Inn, and other
notable personalities on the occasion hailed the scholarship offer saying that
that the initiative would further strengthen the ties between Pakistani
students and Quaid’s alma mater, Lincoln’s Inn. The selection of the students
will be done by the Lincoln’s Inn. The High Commissioner commended the vision
of Sir Anwar Pervez and Asif Rangoonwala for investing in the education of
Pakistani youth, which would open up new vistas of cooperation and
understanding between the two friendly countries.
