Dhaka, Dec 9 (UNI) Prof Dr Muhammad Yunus, the chief adviser of Bangladesh's Interim Government, on Monday urged European countries to relocate their visa centres for Bangladeshis from Delhi to Dhaka or to another neighbouring country.
Yunus appealed to the ambassadors to relocate their visa centres for Bangladeshis from Delhi to Dhaka or a neighbouring country, saying: "India's restrictions on visas for Bangladeshis have created uncertainties for many students who cannot travel to Delhi for European visas," according to The Dhaka Tribune report.
He added: “Consequently, European universities are missing out on talented Bangladeshi students. Relocating visa offices to Dhaka or a nearby country would benefit both Bangladesh and the European Union."
