The government plans to establish a women’s college in every upazila, with a nationwide survey underway to identify areas without such institutions, Education Minister ANM Ehsanul Hoque Milon said on Thursday (November 12).

The minister announced the plan in parliament, saying the initiative was being taken under Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s direction to expand women’s education.

Bangladesh currently has 111 women’s colleges across the country. The survey will assess existing institutions and identify locations for new colleges.

He added that existing colleges would remain in place, while new ones would be established in upazilas without such institutions.
