No decision on quota bypassing court: Law Minister

He said that once a matter is in court, the government waits for the court's decision before taking action.
"Therefore, the government will wait for the court's ruling on the quota issue and will honor the decision of Bangladesh’s highest court. The government will comply with the court's verdict on the quota matter," he said.
He said this while speaking as the chief guest at a seminar in the city.
Prime Minister abolished the quota system in 2018, he said.
"Subsequently, 7 to 8 children of freedom fighters filed a case in the High Court. Those who are currently protesting the quota issue did not initially go to the High Court. It was only after the High Court's decision was published in newspapers that they started protesting. They then decided to continue their protest on the streets instead of going to the High Court," said Anisul.
He added that protestors could present their arguments to the court through lawyers, reports UNB.
"The court has assured that it will consider their statements during the main petition's consideration and resolution. Is there still a need for this movement given this assurance? Are the slogans necessary?" he added.
He said that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina listens to rational arguments and will act in the people's best interest without deviating from the government’s ideals.
"These ideals include honoring Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the Liberation War of Bangladesh, and the freedom fighters. No one can undermine these principles. ," he added.
