The announcement came after a memorandum of understanding (MOU) was signed in London, officially facilitating these opportunities. The MOU was signed in the presence of Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, Chairman of the Pakistan People's Party (PPP), who highlighted the importance of education and empowerment during the ceremony. Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah revealed that three male and three female students from Sindh would receive these scholarships annually, in collaboration with Oxford Pakistan. 'These scholarships have been a part of the Sindh government's long-standing initiative to support students in achieving higher education abroad,' said Chief Minister Shah. The scholarships are a part of the Bhutto programme and are aimed at promoting academic excellence in fields such as science, technology, and engineering. During a visit to Oxford University, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari reflected on the legacy of his mother, Benazir Bhutto, who fought for the betterment of Pakistan's future.

He also expressed concern over the security situation in Balochistan and reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment to the safety of its nuclear assets. In addition to the Oxford scholarships, Sindh's government has also approved 3,157 new scholarships for the 2023-2024 academic year, with a focus on providing opportunities for talented students through the Sindh Education Endowment Fund.
