The High Court (HC) has issued a rule asking why direction will not be given to form specific guidelines to build all Shaheed Minar at home and abroad with similar dimensions to the central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka.
The rule also asked to know why the inactiveness of the concerned authorities to build uniform Shaheed Minars across the globe should not be declared illegal.
The bench of Justice JBM Hasan and Justice Razik-Al-Jalil issued the rule after a hearing of a petition filed by lawyer Md Shahidul Islam who stood for the writ.
The Cultural Ministry secretary and Housing and Public Works secretary have been made the respondents to the rule.
They will have to submit the answers within four weeks.
Deputy Attorney General Tushar Kanti Roy represented the state.
Supreme Court lawyer Shahidul Islam filed the writ on February 24, 2022.
