DHAKA, March 11, 2024 (BSS) - The Appellate Division of the Supreme Court today set tomorrow to hold a hearing on an appeal filed against the High Court order that stayed for two months a government decision to keep primary and secondary schools open in the holy month of Ramadan.
Justice M Enayetur Rahim of the Appellate Division Chamber Judge Court passed the order, maintaining the stay imposed by the High Court. The court sent the matter to the apex-court full bench for a hearing tomorrow.
