Please don’t be a Wikipedia warrior, read the whole article and related links as well, get the information correct first. Ziaur Rehman tried to change secularism as fundamental tenet of constitution in Bangladesh, which is restored by Bangladesh’s Supreme Court [1].

Hope India’s Supreme Court can stand up to this current government’s religious dictatorship and uphold India’s secularism. At present they are postponing it until Jan 22, let’s see.
