The Bangladesh interim government has given approval to establish a new private university in Dhaka titled Grameen University.
In a letter, the education ministry gave the temporary approval addressing Md Ashraful Hassan, chairman of the board of trustees of the new university.
Md Ashraful Hassan is also the chairman of the Grameen Trust.
Bangladesh鈥檚 interim government鈥檚 chief adviser and Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus set up Grameen Trust in 1989 as a not-for-profit and non-government organisation for poverty eradication.
The Secondary and Higher Education Division under the ministry on Monday issued a letter in this regard about the new university.
The letter also read that the new university needs to follow 22 conditions for establishment and operation.
The new university鈥檚 campus will be in the Dakkhin Diabari area under the Turag thana.
Currently, a total of 115 private universities have got approval from the University Grants Commission, while the number is 55 for public universities.
