![]() Govt adopts specific plans to ensure justice for poor: PM “The government has taken specific plans to ensure ‘access to justice’ for financially insolvent people,” he said while addressing the inaugural function of the “National Legal Aid Day-2026” programmes at Shaheed Abu Sayeed International Convention Center in the city. Noting that access to justice is a constitutional right of the people, the Prime Minister said, “According to Article 27 of the Constitution, all citizens are equal before the law and entitled to equal protection, which reflects Article 7 of the United Nations declaration”. The present government believes access to justice is the right of every citizen, he said, adding, it is not desirable in a democratic state for any citizen to be deprived of access to legal protection or justice due to financial constraints.
