IITs entrance tests to be held also in Bangladesh
With the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) are planning for the first time to hold entrance tests abroad including in Saarc countries barring Pakistan for the upcoming year, students in Bangladesh now can easily secure admission in IITs.
While preparations are underway for conducting entrance tests in other Saarc countries and also in Singapore and the United Arab Emirates for undergraduate and postgraduate courses, Pakistan will not figure in the list, sources said.
"Considering various factors, especially difficulties involved with regard to students procuring visas, it has been decided that entrance tests for IITs may not be conducted in Pakistan for the upcoming year," said a senior official.
While the test is to be held in 2017, the outreach programme for the exercise would be conducted earlier.
