The Higher Education Commission (HEC) Pakistan is executing the scholarship programme, initiated at the direction of the Prime Minister of Pakistan to strengthen the judicial system in Balochistan province. The initiative was started in 2018-19 for the award of 100 scholarships in view of the shortage of senior lawyers, following the tragic August 2016 terrorist blast in which more than 60 lawyers were martyred. The programme offers fully-funded study opportunities to law students from Balochistan Province at top national and international institutions at different levels of studies, including LLB, LLM and PhD. So far, 56 students have completed their degrees, while 15 others are currently studying in local and foreign universities. As many as 465 students applied for the award of scholarship against HEC\u2019s latest call for applications. The scholarship aptitude test was held in February-mid. Currently, scrutiny is in process.
