Through collaboration between the government and private investors, PPPs have contributed to the development of roads, airports, power generation, and other public services. This study examines the legal and regulatory framework governing PPPs in Bangladesh, with particular emphasis on the PPP Act 2015, the PPP Policy and Strategy 2010, and the institutions responsible for implementing PPP projects. The research explores both the opportunities and challenges associated with PPP projects. It finds that PPPs have encouraged private investment, reduced pressure on public finances, promoted technological innovation, and supported infrastructure expansion. As a result, PPPs have emerged as an effective tool for achieving national development objectives. Despite these benefits, several regulatory and institutional challenges continue to affect the successful implementation of PPP projects. These include legal ambiguities, lengthy approval procedures, land acquisition difficulties, weak contract enforcement, and disputes among stakeholders. Such challenges may reduce investor confidence and hinder project efficiency. This study is based on an analysis of relevant laws, policies, government reports, and academic literature. It argues that while Bangladesh has established a basic legal foundation for PPPs, further reforms are necessary to enhance transparency, strengthen institutional coordination, reduce bureaucratic barriers, and improve accountability. The effectiveness of PPPs depends not only on the existence of laws and policies but also on their practical implementation. The study concludes that PPPs will continue to play a significant role in Bangladesh's development. Their long-term success will depend on strengthening governance, ensuring regulatory certainty, and building trust between public authorities and private investors. Effective implementation of the legal framework is essential to achieving sustainable development and serving the public interest.

Public interest litigation protects fundamental rights of the society and provides social justice to economically and socially disabled people. In recent years, PIL has begun to emerge as a potent new force within the justice system of Bangladesh. Social and political activists have expressed high levels of interest in the potential of this phenomenon to bring about significant change in Bangladesh society. This study examines the idea of social justice through public interest litigation and Judicial Ruling in various judgments in Bangladesh. Judicial Ruling on Public Interest Litigation in Bangladesh: Evaluating Effective and Pathways for Reform as it has developed in recent years marks a significant departure from traditional judicial proceedings.

Mojibur Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has emerged as a significant mechanism for advancing constitutional rights, ensuring governmental accountability, and promoting social justice in Bangladesh. Through PIL, courts have addressed issues ranging from environmental protection and human rights to administrative transparency and the protection of marginalized communities. However, the expanding role of the judiciary in public affairs has also generated debate regarding the boundaries of judicial intervention. Critics argue that excessive reliance on PIL may encourage judicial activism and lead to judicial populism, where courts venture into policy-making domains traditionally reserved for elected institutions. This thesis examines the development, legal foundations, and impact of PIL in Bangladesh, assessing whether it primarily serves as a tool for justice or contributes to judicial overreach. By analyzing landmark cases, constitutional provisions, and scholarly perspectives, the study evaluates the effectiveness of PIL in strengthening the rule of law while considering concerns about democratic accountability and separation of powers. The research concludes that while PIL remains an essential instrument for protecting public interests and fundamental rights, its legitimacy depends on maintaining a careful balance between judicial intervention and institutional restraint Thu, 25 Jun 2026 00:00:00 GMT http://suspace.su.edu.bd/handle/123456789/2985 2026-06-25T00:00:00Z
