Against the backdrop of recent serial bomb blasts, security has been tightened all over the country, especially in court buildings. It is a laudable step. But as nobody is allowed in court buildings without ID card issued by the Bar Association, apprentice lawyers are facing various problems. If during the probationary period a young lawyer is not allowed to enter court buildings, how can he work?

The Bangladesh Bar Council should look into the matter.
