Citing Bangladesh as a development role model among the international community, Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid on Saturday said many countries, including Pakistan, now want to be like Bangladesh, reports UNB.
Quoting a Pakistani television Chanel talk-show, the minister said some Pakistani scholars requested their newly elected Prime Minister Imran Khan to make Pakistan like Bangladesh within 10 years.
"But this Pakistan once had dominated our country for a long time. Now Bangladesh is ahead of Pakistan in many sectors," he said.
Nahid came up with the remarks while speaking as the chief guest at a daylong International Conference and discussion organised by Allama Rumi Society of Bangladesh held at Muzaffar AhmedChowdhury Auditorium of Dhaka University (DU) Social Science Building.
