The High Court Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh has issued a rule asking why the allocation of spaces to hawkers on roads and footpaths in Dhaka should not be declared illegal and unlawful.

The rule was issued by a High Court bench led by Justice Bishmadeb Chakraborty on Tuesday (May 19).

The court asked the local government secretary, law secretary, administrators of the two Dhaka city corporations and other relevant authorities to respond to the rule.

Earlier, Advocate Md Shoebuzzaman filed a writ petition with the High Court challenging the “Dhaka Hawker Management Policy-2026.”
