The independence of the judiciary means the ability to conduct justice independently, free from interference from the legislative and executive branches. The Constitution of Bangladesh also mentions the establishment of an independent and impartial judiciary. The judiciary has not been able to become independent even in the last 26 years since the verdict in the Masdar Hossain case. Finally on November 30, the Supreme Court issued a Secretariat Ordinance for the complete independence of the judiciary. However, legal experts have expressed doubts about whether this separate secretariat will be sufficient for the complete independence of the judiciary.
Dhaka, home to about 20 million people, is now a highly risky city regarding earthquakes. Because the Madhupur Fault of the tectonic plate, which is within 60 kilometers of this city, has become active again where pressure has been building up for about 400 years. The sub-plates near this plate are also within 20 kilometers of Dhaka city. If a massive earthquake occurs when the strong pressure of these plates is released, a terrible disaster will befall the capital Dhaka. However, the damage will not be the same in all areas of city. Some areas will see much more and some areas will have relatively less damage. The Earthquake Observation and Research Center of the Bangladesh Meteorological Department has reported this information.

With tear stains dried beneath his eyes, his voice weak and strength fading, Tarique Rahman, General Secretary of the unregistered political party Amjonotar Dal, was seen sitting under the open sky in front of the Election Commission building in Dhaka, receiving saline. In a frail voice, he murmured, “We have no muscle power. That’s why the EC unjustly denied our party registration. I will continue protesting against this injustice until my death.”
