Opinion Expressed in a Public Lecture at EWU

Public lecture held at EWU

Bangla is stated to be the sole language of Bangladesh as per the Article 3 of the Constitution. Consequently, it is mandatory to use Bangla in every affair of the state.

For this reason, there should be an absolute use of Bangla in the Judiciary along with the other organs of the state i.e. Parliament and Executive. Otherwise, the constitution is violated.

These opinions were given by Justice Md. Ashraful Kamal of Bangladesh Supreme Court as a Chief Guest in a public lecture entitled "Mayer Vashay Adalolter Ray" (Judgment of Courts in the Mother Language) organized by Department of Law, East West University (EWU). The public lecture was held on 25 February 2017 at Aftabnagar, Dhaka. The Vice-Chancellor of the university Professor Dr. MM Shahidul Hasan chaired the program.
