The High Court today issued a status quo (existing condition) for a month on the demolition of Shishubagh School, a historic structure with memories of the anti-British movement, at Rahmatganj in Chattogram.
The HC also issued a rule asking authorities concerned of the government to explain why their failure to protect the structure should not be declared illegal.
In the rule, the court also asked the government to show cause why it should not be directed to protect and preserve the structure as a heritage site.
