He also said that the institutions recognised before 2006 that were previously excluded in a discriminatory manner by the previous government would be prioritized.
He said no new educational institution had been included in the MPO since 2022.
The MPO summary was sent to the CA and should be finalised by tomorrow or the next week, he added.
He also said 2000 madrashas will get new buildings as 6,389 madrasas have not received any new building since 2006. ERAB President Faruk Hossain, General Secretary Solaiman Salman and other members were present at the meeting.
