Chief Justice Surendra Kumar Sinha said on Saturday the judiciary can be subjected to fair criticism if and when occasion demands like any other public institution, reports UNB.
"It's important in a country governed by a rule of law that every decision must be made under the rule of law. Like any other public institution, the judiciary can be subjected to fair criticism if and when occasion demands," the Chief Justice said.
He said this while addressing a workshop on Digitalisation of Bangladesh judiciary jointly organised by Bangladesh Supreme Court and UNDP at the Bangabandhu International Conference Centre.
The Chief Justice hoped that with continuous cooperation and efforts from bar, bench, governments and all other stakeholders, they will soon be able to remove the deficiencies that have crept into the system over a period of time and deliver speedy and affordable justice to our people by Digitalisation of Bangladesh Judiciary.
Mentioning that the science and modern technologies have a close impact on the pattern of human behaviour and lifestyle that has given rise to the disputes and offences of various natures, Sinha said to solve civil disputes and detect the perpetrators involved in commission of offences, there is no alternative to fashioning both procedural and substantive laws of the land.
