DHAKA: A day after the Bangladesh law ministry issued a notification on Supreme Court directives for the training of 50 judicial officials in India, the Muhammad Yunus-led interim govt on Sunday cancelled the progamme, adding to the already strained ties between the two neighbours since the fall of the Sheikh Hasina govt in Aug last year.
The Indian govt was to bear all the expenses for the judges’ training at the National Judicial Academy and the State Judicial Academy in Madhya Pradesh’s Bhopal from Feb 10-20, according to the now-cancelled notification.
The Supreme Court on Sunday reissued directives on the training of judges in India and this has led to the cancellation of the earlier approval for them to attend the training programme in Bhopal, the law, justice, and parliamentary affairs ministry said in its latest notification on Sunday.
Assistant judges, senior assistant judges, joint district and sessions judges, additional district and sessions judges, district and sessions judges and officers of equivalent rank have been nominated for the training programme
India and Bangladesh have witnessed strained ties, with New Delhi raising concern over a series of attacks on Hindus and other minorities in Bangladesh.
