Blood game in the mountain

Blood game in the mountain
Do not want to write history. Would like to be in the present time. It can not be understood again if it does not return anything back. In 1960, the Pakistani rulers wrote the history of deprivation of the hill residents while making Kaptai hydropower project. Kaptai dam submerged 40 percent of the total land of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Never been warned before. When the hydropower project is started, many hillside houses are submerged in the darkness of the night. The movement started demanding rights since then. The leader of that movement was MN Larma.

When the constitution of the independent Bangladesh took the initiative to make everyone a Bengali, the deprivation began for the second time. Chakma Marmara hilly, Bangladeshi people of independent Bangladesh, but they are not Bengali. His language-culture-behavior and lifestyle are completely different. Independent Bangladesh did not agree to give them the status. In the Constituent Assembly of 1973, MN Larma made an unforgettable speech. I am Chakma, not Bengali - Residents of Bangladesh, walk out in protest.

Independent Bangladesh failed to show sensitivity towards the hilly. During the time of Ziaur Rahman, from the plane to the hills of the Bengalis, the hill areas - the land started to be occupied. This trend continues throughout Ershad's time.

With the armed forces of the Jana Sanghati Samity Shanti Bahini, the war in Chittagong Hill Tracts has been around 23 years. The amount of loss of life and property is huge. The war ended on December 2, 1997 under the Chittagong Hill Tracts Accord. Even if the hope of peace is born, peace does not come. Peace did not come, a few days ago, 6 killings were bearing evidence of it. Why peace does not return, why are still bleeding, some talk about it.

While writing today, black letters are reddening. Red blood red, powerful Chakma blood When sitting in the office, I heard that a Upazila chairman was killed in Rangamati, not surprised or surprised. Killing, kidnapping, regular issues in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Look at the picture. Shakma Chakma, powerful photos! The identity of Shakramman Chakma has been since 1999. Along with her, I traveled in a very remote place of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. The place of his killing, almost every angle of Naniarchar is known - known. BCL students used to study in college. Then the people of Satara Larma-led Jana Sanghati Samity were involved in politics. There was regular contact till 2007. Like the 'reform' bait, it spoiled national politics, and also defied the regional politics of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. The Jana Sanghati Samiti had formed a group called 'reformist' Jana Sanghati Samiti (MN Larma). Shakma Chakma was also in that group. Since then, communication has almost stopped. Upazila chairman was elected in 2014 Did not know, did not talk. As far as I remembered, I did not call it. Without giving any other opportunity to hold the phone, he went forever. The difficulty of not calling the phone is suffering a bit.

The brave decision of the Sheikh Hasina government of 1996 was the agreement of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina also received the UNESCO Peace Prize for her contract. But a party never wanted peace in the context of the agreement. Although the national and regional political pressure could not stand against the agreement, the party was not silent. In 1997, anti-union UPDP was formed. After the agreement, the guerrillas who came back after submitting arms were being victimized by UPDF one by one. Who formed the UPDF, who killed them, the information is not unknown in Chittagong Hill Tracts. To get rid of the UPDF, a section of the Jana Sanghati Samity again lifted the weapon. The abduction killings continued on the hill. There was a dispute between the UPDF again. A UPDF leader has taken a political shelter abroad. Another kidnapped and ransomed and killed in Dhaka and Chittagong. Then a few days ago UPDF was broken. Another party named UPDF Democratic was born, who do not want the agreement to be implemented.

In the case of UPDF dismantling, the name changed to a reputed Janasonghati Samity (MN Larma) group.

The other party is broken by one group - the faction is making everything, those who do not want peace in the mountains through agreement. Their aim is to question the leaders of the hill Jatirindra Bodipriya (Santu Larma) Larma, weaken. In the Chittagong Hill Tracts, a team or group has been killed in the killing of another group leader

Sheikh Hasina's government did not have the courage to prove that courage was in the process of implementation. BNP-Jamaat did not take any initiative to implement the agreement after coming to power. The persecution of the previous caretaker government increased in Chittagong Hill Tracts for two years. Prior to the 2008 election, the 14 parties had promised, the winner would be fully implemented. Although the winner was not in fact the initiative to implement the contract. Statistics say that 70 percent, 80 percent or 90 percent have been implemented repeatedly. The real picture is quite different than this figure. For example,

A. In accordance with the agreement, the Chittagong Hill Tracts Regional Council was formed. Regional Council Chairman Santu Larma But the regional council was not implemented by law.

B. 'Land dispute' is the main problem of the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Before the treaty, millions of hills took shelter in India during the war situation. The places of these hilly lands are occupied by the Bengalis taken from the plains, known as 'settlers'. The hawkers who returned after the agreement did not return their cultivar land and home. Even though the recent legal reform is complete, the work in reality is not yet visible.

C. Initiatives have not been taken to ensure the empowerment of the locals.

D Efforts were not taken to rehabilitate the rebel guerrillas returned by submitting arms.

E. The team, faction, has been created. Terrorism-extortion is on the move freely. The killing and kidnappings of Shaktamman Chakma and five more victims of the killings have become very normal in the hills.

Previously there were the Shanti Bahini Jana Sanghati Samity Armed Organizations Their war was with the military forces of Bangladesh. The war ended with the 1997 agreement. Now there are no peace forces. Many groups of names and anonymity have been formed. The work of these groups is to create extortion-kidnapping-killing. The opposition has created these terrorist groups. Earlier, there were forest areas, wild jungle reserved in the Chittagong Hill Tracts. It was a hundred years old tree. This jungle was the shelter of peace forces. Smugglers cut trees using money through the permission of the Shanti Bahini. If the jungle does not get damaged, the hiding place will remain unchanged, as if it were not allowed to cut trees. There is a chance to go to these jungle after the agreement. The dark forest of the day is like the night. In the next five-six years after the treaty, the jungle was cleaned. There is no big tree, there are no trees. Myanmar's terrorist groups have been involved with local terrorist groups. Sometimes a local terrorist group is abducted, handed over to Myanmar's terrorist group. By giving a long time to the court, the release of the ransom becomes free. If the ransom is not given, the kidnapped person does not return. Lost in the forest of Chittagong Hill Tracts. Contradictions or Implementation Controlled by the opponents, these abductions and ransom issues

What is the way to stop blood sport in the hills or to overcome the situation? There is no easy way. The situation has been complicated from day to day. There is no possibility of developing the situation without the implementation of the agreement. Hill leader Santu Larma is still alive, active. He is a tested leader of the hill- guardian.

On behalf of Chittagong Hill Tracts, he signed the agreement with the Bangladesh government.

He needs to stop the process of dispute. In the absence of Santu Larma, violence in the hill will increase further. It is essential to implement the agreement in the interest of Bangladesh. The brave decision of the political government needed. Do not hide the statistics
