DHAKA, Jan 26, 2020 (BSS) – Jatiya Sangsad (JS) Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin
Chaudhury said the government under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister
Sheikh Hasina is committed to ensure the establishment of rule of laws.

“The remarkable trial of murderers of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman
and war criminals proves that Bangladesh does not have the practice of
injustice culture,” she said addressing the ‘Annual Feast- 2019’ as the chief
guest.

Chattogram District Lawyers Association organised the event at Chattogram
Lawyers Auditorium on Saturday, said a press release.

“The government believes that establishment of rule of law is a must to
materialise the dream of Bangabandhu’s ‘Sonar Bangla’, a hunger, poverty and
discrimination free Bangladesh”, she added.

Dr Shirin also called for the unity among the lawyers saying, “There is no
substitute for unity of lawyers in democratic progress by upholding our
constitution, gifted by Bangabandhu,” added the release.

Mentioning that the number of female lawyers is increasing rapidly, the JS
Speaker also laid emphasise on creating a friendly and positive work
environment for woman lawyers.

She urged the lawyers to cooperate with the government to mark the
occasion of Mujib Year.

She thanked Chattogram District Lawyers Association for the arrangements
and presented the former chairman and general secretaries of the association
with honorary awards.

The programme was presided over by the Chairman of Chattogram District
Lawyers Association ASM Badrul Anowar.
