The problem of rural courts, and the poor man's door step at very nominal cost was introduced in 1976 to create an opportunity to resolve disputes in the community level. The importance of the services of the village courts has been upgraded to the 'Village Court Ordinance 1976' with the Bangladesh Government Act, 2006. Theoretically, the District Court is constituted by the constitutional court and representative of the local government (union council) representative (community leader) and nominated by the disputant party.
