Bangladesh’s constitution enshrines the people as the ultimate source of power, safeguarding everyday rights often taken for granted. From a parent walking a child to school to a citizen freely expressing their opinion, these actions are protected by an unseen legal framework. Article 7 of the constitution explicitly declares the people as the owners of all state power. This foundational principle ensures citizens can navigate daily life with a degree of security and freedom. The legal system acts as an ‘invisible sanctuary’ for fundamental rights, operating subtly but powerfully in the background. Recognizing this underlying structure is vital for appreciating the freedoms enjoyed within the nation, and underscores the importance of constitutional principles. This framework fosters a sense of security and enables civic participation.
