Court index description
The High Court Division cannot assume the power and jurisdiction of a particular authority conferred by a specific law/statute in exercising power under Article 102 of the Constitution of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh and thus, the High Court cannot declare a particular area as `Balumahal` making a particular law i.e. Ain 2010 nugatory or redundant. Thus, in this particular case the High Court Division has traveled beyond its jurisdiction declaring the mouzas in question as `Balumahal`.
