At the national conference of lawyers held in 1992 under the auspices of the Bangladesh Bar Council, the idea of establishing an organisation for providing legal aid and its proposed structure was mooted. Later, in pursuance of this idea, certain steps were taken for establishing a legal aid organisation as a non-profit Trust under the name of Bangladesh Legal Aid and Services Trust (BLAST). On 29 May 1993, BLAST was incorporated with the Registrar of Joint Stock Companies of the Government of Bangladesh as a company limited by guarantee and in the same year on 19 December 1993 it was registered as an NGO with the NGO Affairs Bureau.
