Order 4
|
Article 102 of the Constitution is not meant to circumvent or bypass
statutory procedures:
The legislature made specific provisions in Section 17 of the Customs Act,
1969, Order 4 of the বাংলাদেশ আমদানি
নীতি আদেশ, 2021-2024, and Section 96 of the Trademarks Act
for alternative, effective and equally efficacious remedy to the petitioner
for violation of any condition laid down in Section 15 of the Customs Act,
1969 regarding importation of parallel goods. Article 102 of the
Constitution is not meant to circumvent or bypass statutory procedures as
stated above. When a right is created by a statute, which prescribes a
remedy or procedure for enforcing the right, resort must be had to that
particular statutory remedy before seeking extraordinary and discretionary
remedy under Article 102(2) of the Constitution. Judicial prudence demands
that this Court should refrain from exercising its jurisdiction under the
said constitutional provision. This is a self-restrained restriction of the
High Court Division. ...Unilever Bd Ltd. Vs. Chairman, National Board of

Article 21
|
Empowers the authority to relax the conditions—
Import of reconditioned cars of more than 5 years old for personal use and
for commercial purpose are two different cases which are distinguishable
from the other. While the authority relaxed the conditions for personal use
and refused the prayer of the writ petitioner for commercial purpose that
does not offend article 27 of the Constitution. Chief Controller of Import
