Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Anisul Huq today said that chaos occurs in society in the absence of justice.
"Without justice, people cannot live peacefully in society. In the absence of justice, chaos occurs in society," he said.
The minister said that Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman dreamt of an independent, impartial and dynamic judiciary, where the exploited, deprived, oppressed and helpless-people would get justice speedily at low cost.
Anisul said that in order to establish social peace and order and build a strong socio-economic system in a country, it is essential to ensure justice for every criminal involved in crime and these trials should be done as quickly as possible.
"In this regard, the government led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has been providing all kinds of support to the judiciary since the beginning," he added.
The current government and the Supreme Court are taking various pragmatic steps to reduce the country's long-standing backlog of cases through speedy disposal of cases, he continued.
The minister said the people have already started getting the benefits of it.
