At a roundtable titled 'Judicial Independence and Reform: Constitutional Obligations, Court Directives, and Public Expectations' organized by Citizens for Good Governance (SUJAN) at the National Press Club on Tuesday, speakers criticized the government for rejecting interim government ordinances related to judicial reform. They said the government promised to enact better laws but its actions have failed to reassure citizens.
Acting SUJAN president Justice M A Matin stated that there is a conspiracy to undermine reform under the guise of amendment, warning that the nation will not accept such attempts. He recalled that despite constitutional provisions for judicial independence, no government took steps until 1995, when the Supreme Court issued landmark directives in the Masdar Hossain case. He said the interim government later issued two ordinances to strengthen judicial independence, which were later nullified.
Other speakers, including Justice Moinul Islam Chowdhury and SUJAN secretary Dr. Badiul Alam Majumdar, emphasized the need to restore public trust in the judiciary and urged the government to form a constitutional reform council without delay.
