Researchers have introduced the Bangladesh Legal Acts Dataset (BLAD), a comprehensive collection of 1,484 legislative acts from 1799 to 2025. This dataset includes the full text of each act, its structural components, repeal status, and metadata linking it to historical governance and legal frameworks. BLAD supports temporal and multilingual analysis, featuring documents in English, Bengali, and mixed languages, and aims to fill a critical gap in legal NLP resources for South Asian civil-law jurisdictions.
