In the hearing, the writ petitioner, Taimur Alam Khondkar, requested immediate compensation to the families of the slain children. Then the Attorney General told the court that the government will soon take a policy decision on whether compensation will be given to the families of those killed in the student movement and how much compensation will be given. Requested to adjourn the hearing until a policy decision is taken.
At that time, the High Court writ petitioner said to the lawyer, the government has just been formed. You yourself want the success of this government. Wait a few days. The Attorney General says the government will decide on compensation. The court should not stick its nose in the policy decisions of the government. Have you seen how many things happened due to interference in the policy decision (high court verdict on quota restoration).
