Parliament Correspondent: Ruling party lawmakers have called for deeper scrutiny before repealing four key ordinances related to the judiciary and parliament secretariat issued during the interim government's tenure, citing growing public criticism and confusion over the proposed move. The concerns were raised during a meeting of the BNP parliamentary party held at the government party room in the national parliament on Tuesday. Prime Minister and Leader of the House Tarique Rahman presided over the session. The four ordinances under discussion include the National Parliament Secretariat Interim Special Provisions Ordinance, the Supreme Court Judge Appointment Ordinance, the Supreme Court Secretariat Ordinance 2025, and the Supreme Court Secretariat Amendment Ordinance 2026. A parliamentary special committee had earlier recommended repealing all four through separate bills introduced in the House on Monday. According to sources familiar with the meeting, lawmakers informed the Prime Minister that the recommendation to repeal these ordinances has triggered negative reactions among the general public. Members argued that the establishment of a Supreme Judicial Appointment Council for appointing Supreme Court judges and the creation of an independent Supreme Court Secretariat to oversee subordinate courts were widely regarded as landmark steps toward ensuring judicial independence. Repealing them could send the wrong signal to citizens, they cautioned, urging expert-level review and consideration of public opinion before passing any legislation.The ruling party's stance aligns with that of coalition partner Jamaat-e-Islami, whose lawmakers had filed a formal note of dissent in the special committee advocating that these ordinances be retained unchanged. Jamaat members described the ordinances as significant measures to strengthen and ensure the impartiality of the judiciary.Addressing the meeting, Prime Minister emphasized accountability and commitment to public welfare. "We must repay the trust the people have placed in us through our work. Every minute of parliament is valuable. No personal interest or negligence will be tolerated. We are committed to building a welfare state," he said.The session also covered several other decisions. The Prime Minister directed lawmakers to expedite the process of converting all 133 interim government ordinances into permanent law, ensure full attendance of party members during parliamentary sessions, and initiate the recruitment of 100,000 health workers alongside increasing health sector allocation to five percent of GDP. Deputy Leader of the House and Chief Whip Nurul Islam Moni briefed the meeting on the progress of ongoing parliamentary proceedings.
