The Provisional Constitution of Bangladesh Order, 1972 The Provisional Constitution of Bangladesh Order, 1972 On 11 January 1972 President SHEIKH MUJIBUR RAHMAN issued a Provisional Constitution Order. This Order changed the nature of government. The presidential form was substituted by the cabinet form of government. Its main features were: (i) There should be parliamentary democracy in Bangladesh in accordance with the will of the peopl e; (ii) There should be a cabinet of ministers with the PRIME MINISTER as its head; (iii) The president should act and exercise his functions on the advice of the prime minister; (iv) The President should ap point a member of the constituent Assembly the prime minister who commanded the confidence of the majority members of the constituent assembly. All other ministers should be appointed by the President on the advice of the prime minister; (vi) There should be a constituent assembly comprising Bangladeshis who had been elected to the seats of the National Assembly and the Provincial Assembly in December 1970 and 17 January 1971, who are not otherwise disqualified by or under any law; (v) In the event of a vacancy in the office of the President at any time prior to the framing of the constitution by the constituent assembly, assembly, the cabinet s hould appoint a Bangladeshi citizen as the President.
There should be a HIGH COURT of Bangladesh which would consist of a CHIEF JUSTICE and as many judges as may be appointed from time to time. One significant point to be noted here is that unlike the Constituent Assembly of Pakistan the Constituent Assembly of Bangladesh was not given any law-making function; it was solely responsible for making the constitution of the country. The law-making power continued to remain vested in the executive, and the Proclamation of Independence continued to remain as the supreme law till the constitution was put into effect from 16 December 1972. The executive till then remained unaccountable to anybody or to any institution whatsoever.
