The Department of Law at State University of Bangladesh (SUB) has launched a four-day Law Fest 2026 in Dhaka, bringing together academic, co-curricular, and cultural activities under the theme "Think Law; Live Justice".
The festival, running from Sept 5–8, was inaugurated by Prof Asif Nazrul, advisor to the department.
Prof Md Hasan Kawsar, acting vice-chancellor of SUB, attended as chief guest.
The ceremony was presided over by Jinat Amin Shipa, chairman of the law department.
Speaking at the inauguration, Nazrul said knowledge of law is fundamental to building a just and conscious society, and stressed the importance of exposing students to its practical application beyond the classroom.
Kawsar said law students would go on to hold leadership roles across the judiciary, administration, and corporate sector, and urged the cultivation of legal knowledge alongside critical thinking and human values.
Festival activities include friendly debate, sports, a wall magazine, exhibition, quiz, moot court, a cultural programme, and an award-giving ceremony.
A special session titled "Cyber Law Awareness: Citizen Right, Response, and Digital Safety" is scheduled for Sept 7, targeting students from nearby colleges, with a quiz competition to follow.
The festival concludes Sept 8 with a cultural programme and award-giving ceremony.
