About the Association
Guardians of Justice, Integrity, and the Rule of Law in Khagrachari
Our history and establishment
The Khagrachari District Bar Association began as a small gathering of advocates who believed that justice in the hills should be as accessible as it is anywhere in the country.
Over the decades it has grown into the professional home of the district’s legal community, defending the independence of the Bar, protecting the dignity of its members and serving citizens of every community, language and background.
