It said while the prime minister asked for quick disposal of disputes over vested property, the land administration was obstructing implementation of the court verdicts in the cases concerned. Speaking at a press conference at Dhaka Reporters Unity (DRU), leaders of the National Citizen Coordination Cell to Implement the Vested Property Return Act threatened to wage a movement if the obstructions are not removed. Since the passing of the Vested Property Return (second amendment) Act 2013, many disputes were taken to courts and verdicts delivered. However, on April 12, the land ministry issued a circular for inclusion of vested properties "left out and not included by mistake" in the gazette concerned. Subrata Chowdhury, general secretary of the Cell, said this circular would hamper disposal of cases regarding return of vested property, and called it "illegal" and "unconstitutional". “This circular must be cancelled," he said. Former caretaker government adviser Sultana Kamal said 70 percent of the cases regarding vested property still remained unsettled as the land administration was obstructing disposal of the cases. “The prime minister herself has expressed her goodwill for disposal of the cases. Yet the administration is impeding trials. We condemn this,” she said. Like Subrata, she sees an ulterior motive behind issuance of the circular. Executive Director of Association for Land Reform and Development Shamsul Huda, who is a member of the Cell, read out a written statement at the conference. He said, “We strongly believe that a section of the bureaucracy has become hyperactive to hamper disposal of the vested property cases.” He questioned why the land ministry issued two circulars at the same time -- one regarding left out properties and the other for stopping harassment of vested property claimants. “We strongly protest this action and demand withdrawal of the circular,” he added. Contacted, Cabinet Secretary Mohammad Shafiul Alam told The Daily Star that he had no idea about the land administration impeding disposal of the cases. “No one has complained. I suggest that the people concerned sit with the land ministry,” he said. The Cell also spoke of a directive of the law ministry that allowed the administration of a certain district to file a writ petition against the lower court verdicts regarding vested property. It said that although the directive applied to only one district, all district administrations were taking advantage of the "controversial" directive to harass people. It demanded cancellation of this directive, too. Kamal Lohani, president of the Cell; Rana Dasgupta, general secretary of Bangladesh Hindu- Buddhist-Christian Unity Council; Tabarak Hossain, vice-president of Sammilita Samajik Andolan, and Kajal Debnath, adviser of Bangladesh Puja Udjapan Parishad, were present. 2. http://newagebd.net/236946/vested-property/ VESTED PROPERTY: Rights bodies oppose land ministry move June 22, 2016 12:17 am·0 CommentsViews: 38 Staff correspondent Representatives of organisations, including Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Oikya Parishad and Ain O Salish Kendra, hold a press conference at Dhaka Reporter’s Unity on Tuesday, protesting at the delay in implementing a verdict of Vested Property Return Special Appeal Tribunal. — New Age photo Leaders of ten rights organisations on Tuesday strongly protested a land ministry move for fresh inclusion of land in the list of vested property and demanded stopping the move immediately. They threatened to go for tougher movement across the country if any land was freshly included in the list of the vested property. Addressing a press conference at Dhaka Reporters Unity, they also said that a quarter inside the government had taken the move for fresh inclusion of land in the vested property list with an ill motive to grab land and make money. They said that the quarter was also hatching a conspiracy to make the Vested Property Return Act 2001 dysfunctional by taking such move. The land ministry on March 4 issued a letter to deputy commissioners of 50 districts asking for information within seven working days about how much vested properties were excluded from the list and how much were wrongly included in the list in their respective districts. Human rights activist Sultana Kamal, also a former adviser of the caretaker government, said that the government had enacted the vested property return act and brought a number of amendments but there was little implementation of the act till date. She demanded withdrawal of the land ministry letter to the DCs and said the move to prepare another list of vested property is a conspiracy to foil the prime minister’s sincerity towards implementation of the act. Sultana Kamal said that it was embarrassing for them to raise the voice again and again for the implementation of the same act. Executive director of Association for Land Reform and Development Shamsul Huda read out a written statement while Arpita Sampatti Ain Protirodh Andolan president Kamal Lohani, its general secretary Subrata Chowdhury, Bangladesh Hindu Buddhist Christian Oikya Parishad general secretary Rana Dasgupta and Sammilita Samajik Andolan general secretary Tobarak Hossain, among others, were present at the press conference. http://www.dhakatribune.com/bangladesh/2016/jun/22/70-cases-unresolved-despite- vested-properties-return-law ‘70% cases unresolved despite vested properties return law ‘ Kamrul Hasan Although the government in 2013 passed the Vested Property Return (second amendment) Bill 2013, several activities by different government organisations is delaying the implementation process of the law. Human rights activists yesterday warned that such delays will turn people against the government since many will go homeless if the act is not correctly implemented.

ZOBAIDA AKHTER Senior Research Fellow Centre for Civilisational Dialogue 2nd Floor, Siswarama Building University of Malay Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT: Women’s access to education must be treated as their fundamental right. And it is only through education that they would get the chance to prepare themselves in order to play their roles in nation’s social, economic and political spheres as equal members of society. In Bangladesh, very few women can enjoy such rights and live a healthy and prestigious life. At present due to government initiatives, girl’s enrolment in primary and secondary education is little bit higher than the boys. Despite of such encouraging scenario, there is a dark side behind this. Due to prejudice, mistaken education from family and society, lack of security, dropout rate of girls is higher and their retention rate is low. Though there are facilities with free education till secondary education, lack of social motivation, mistaken education and increasing rate of violence against in different form, refrain them from education and encourage them in child marriage. Marriage is considered as the alternative to education, which ultimately leads to violence against women due to unpaid dowry. The article will analyse the issues of dowry from some case studies, which will give the indication of the real causes of dowry and how education in a real sense is lacking behind this evil.

  • The Origin and Evaluation of Ship Breaking Regime of South Asia: a Critical Perspective from Bangladesh
    The Origin and Evaluation of Ship Breaking Regime of South Asia: A Critical Perspective From Bangladesh Ishtiaque Ahmed1 Chair, Department of Law, North South University Bangladesh ———————————————— Abstract: The Hong Kong Convention was adopted in 2009 to regulate the global industry of ship recycling, but the convention remains unen- forced due to the problem of ratification by the leading ship recycling states. Due to the lopsided track record of shipbreaking in the last forty years, the ratification currently depends primarily on the policy choices of few developing nations. Given the gross unpreparedness and oversight of Pakistan towards the treaty’s timely accession with India’s recent rati- fication, and the ban of China on the import of hazardous waste, the re- sponsibility lies with the policymakers of Bangladesh to decide the fate of this influential global pact. This article attempts to track down the origin and evolution of ship recycling regime of Bangladesh, followed by a critical analysis of the salient provisions of the framework ship recycling regulations of this chief ship recycling state as adopted recently. It postulates that the drawbacks figured out may create significant obstruction or procrastination to accede to the convention by Bangladesh thereby endowing an inclusive and sustainable global ship recycling industry any time soon. The article ends with recommendations to the government of Bangladesh for necessary amendments in its framework regulations on ship recycling identified in this research. Keywords: Ship-breaking, Ship Recycling, Hong Kong Convention, End of Life Ships, Ship Breaking and Ship Recycling Rule. 1Corresponding author: [email protected]. 1 Legal Issues Journal 8(2) July 2020 I.

  • Interaction Between Journos Imperative, Says Indian Press Council Chair Staff Correspondent
    Interaction between journos imperative, says Indian Press Council chair Staff Correspondent Members of a visiting team of the Press Council of India exchange views with senior journalists of media outlets of the East West Media Group Ltd at its conference room in the city on Wednesday.- sun photo Interaction and cooperation between journalists of India and Bangladesh are needed to overcome common professional barriers, threats and challenges, said Press Council of India Chairman Justice Chandramauli Kumar Prasad. Media coverage in a conflict zone has become a great challenge for journalists, he stated. “Journalism is going to be a risky profession in the subcontinent as they have to face different kinds of threats and challenges.” The media crew of both the friendly countries should unitedly challenge the menaces confronting them in professional duties, Justice Prasad said. The observations were made during a view-exchange meeting of a delegation of the Press Council of India with editors and senior journalists of East-West Media Group Ltd on Wednesday. The event was held in the EWMGL conference room at Bashundhara Residential Area. The visiting team of journalists, mostly editors from prominent Indian newspapers, also made a tour of the EWMGL media outlets. The visitors got fully apprised of the state of the mass media in Bangladesh. Speaking on the occasion, the Press Council chair underscored the need for more interaction and communications between the journalists of two countries. Journalists from both sides also echoed Justice Prasad’s views on the matter and voiced concern over the mounting threat of terrorism, militancy and conspiracies against their respective countries.

  • Quarterly Human Rights Monitoring Report on Bangladesh
    Quarterly Human Rights Monitoring Report on Bangladesh Reporting Period: July – September 2019 Prepared by Odhikar Date of Release: 12 October 2019 1 Foreword In order to promote and protect the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of Bangladeshi citizens, Odhikar has been relentlessly working on human rights in Bangladesh since 1994. Odhikar does not believe that the human rights movement merely endeavours to protect the ‘individual’ from violations perpetrated by the state; rather, it believes that the movement to establish the rights and dignity of every individual is part of the struggle to constitute Bangladesh as a democratic state. As a human rights organization Odhikar has always been active in raising mass awareness of the various human rights violations committed by the state and to campaign for internationally recognized civil and political rights, protest rights violations and prevent the state from violating human rights. The Organisation unconditionally stands by the victims of oppression and maintains no prejudice with regard to political leanings or ideological orientation, race, religion or sex. Since 2013, Odhikar has been facing persecution and continuous harassment and threats to its existence by the incumbent government due to its human rights activism. Despite this adverse situation, Odhikar continues to work; and has prepared the third quarter (July-September) report of 2019 on the human rights situation of Bangladesh, based on reports gathered by grassroots human rights defenders associated with
