Finally on November 30, the Supreme Court issued a Secretariat Ordinance for the complete independence of the judiciary.

Every December, a strange light ignites in the heart of Bangladesh— victory, grief and pride blend into an overwhelming emotion. The victory of 1971 was not just the end of a war, but the triumph of a nation fighting for existence, the liberation of a civilisation. Every year, December reminds us of the sacrifices of the freedom fighters and the pride of a red-green flag born through immense struggle.

Several recent incidents have intensified this question.
