DINAJPUR, April 7, 2025 (BSS) - Chief Justice (CJ) Syed Refaat Ahmed today 
said proposals have been made to bring transformation in many sectors, but no 
alteration will become sustainable without the reform in the judiciary.

"I have taken charge as the Chief Justice right after the July-August mass 
uprising. I had presented a blueprint for a far-reaching reform to the nation 
within a very short time. We have to cross a long way, some of which are 
difficult, but we have to cross these in any way," he said while addressing a 
views exchange meeting with the local administration and stakeholders at 
Hakimpur upazila in Dinajpur district this afternoon.

Reiterating his call for reform in the judiciary, the CJ said this has become 
the synonym of the word "reform".

Chief Justice Syed Refaat Ahmed handed over stipends among 10 meritorious 
students of Hakimpur Girls Degree College from "Syed Zafar Ahmed and 
Tabserunnesa Memorial Scholarship" fund, named after his grandfather and 
grandmother. The stipends are being given yearly since 2005 from the fund.

Presided over by Principal of the college Mamunur Rashid Azad, the programme 
was attended, among others, by Supreme Court Registrar General Aziz Ahmed 
Bhuiyan, Appellate Division Registrar Md Hasanuzzaman, Dinajpur Senior 
District and Sessions Judge Alamgir Kabir, Deputy Commissioner Rafikul Islam, 
Superintendent of Police Marfot Hossain and Upazila Nirbahi Officer (UNO) 
Amit Roy.
