Oaths of the MPs: A Constitutional Conundrum




Dr M Jashim Ali Chowdhury

The Daily Star, Law and Our Rights, 23 February 2024

My opinion (written in Bangla) on the debate regarding the oath of the newly elected MPs of Bangladesh was published on 29 January 2024 on the site of Lawyers Club Bangladesh. I actually wrote the text first in English. The English version was published today on the Law and Our Rights page of the Daily Star, the leading English daily in Bangladesh. Law and Our Rights edited a couple of sentences and words. I really liked the editing, especially the word "Conundrum" in the title.
