Addressing a demand raised by Centre for NRB Chairperson MS Shekil Chowdhury, the law minister said he would take steps so that non-resident Bangladeshis can virtually join the meeting with stakeholders while formulating acts.
"The government while addressing the demand of time, established Digital Bangladesh, and formulated Courts' use of ICT Act. It established Virtual Courts, and modernised the witness act of the British era. Now people from all walks of life are getting the benefits of these works," the law minister further said.
