SANGSAD BHABAN, Sept 12, 2019 (BSS) – Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishtan Bill, 2019 was placed in the Jatiya Sangsad with view to make a time befitting act through abolishing the existing ‘Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishthan(BKSP) Ordinance 1983.

State Minister for Youth and Sports M Zahid Ahsan Rasel placed the bill in the House with Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury in the chair.

“It is necessary to enactment a new law as the effectiveness of the ordinance already has been null and void with the cancellation of the seventh amendment of the constitution by the Supreme Court in 2011,” according to the bill.

Placing the bill, the state minister said it is necessary to enact a time befitting act for the operation of the BKSP.

Earlier, the cabinet has approved the draft law of ‘Bangladesh Krira Shikkha Protishthan Act 2019’ (BKSP 2019) on March 2019.

“Everything in the draft law is almost like the ordinance of 1983. Some changes have been made in section 5 of the law,” it said.

The state minister urged the house to send the bill to the parliamentary standing committee for further scrutiny within two months.
