JSS organises national youth conference

Courtesy: CHT Voice, Thursday, 17 Oct. 2013

http://www.chtvoice.blogspot.com/2013/10/jss-organises-national-youth-conference.html

For the first time in the history of Parbatya Chattagram Juba Samiti, the youth front of PCJSS has been formed at Dighinal on 10^th instant. Earlier, before PCJSS bifurcation, a central committee member used to lead this front organization at the capacity of its director. During this period its highest tier was thana committee and lowest committee was village committee while the middle tier was union committee.

During armed movement this front organ was led by the Gram Panchayet and Juba Samiti Directorate led by a central committee member keeping the head office attached to the Ghq. Its administrative segments (civil administration for Gram Panchayet and Juba Samiti) did not match with the military administrative areas. Regional Directors and Assistant Regional Directors (RD and ARD) used to get appointments from the Director of Gram Panchayet and Juba Samiti Directorate to lead the Village Panchayets and Juba Samiti units at field level.

After the foundation of the central committee, now the district, thana, union and village committees will be functional under the command of a PCJSS central committee member. The main responsibilities of the Juba Samiti will be the popularization of the PCJSS and support its activities. The meting was held at the Dighinal Headmen Association office. A few hundred PCJSS activists from different organs and different thanas of Rangamati and Khagarachari Hill Districts attended the national youth conference. Mr. Sudhasindhu Khisa and Mr. Rupayan Dewan spoke as chief guest and special guest respectively while Mr. Tatindra Lal Chakma, general secretary of the PCJSS also addressed the conference.  

Bangladesh: All Is Not Well In Chittagong Hill Tracts

Bangladesh: All Is Not Well In Chittagong Hill Tracts

General perception is that the three decade-long ethnic conflict of Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) ended with the CHT Accord of 1997 signed between the Government of Bangladesh and Parbatya Chattagram Jana Samhati Samiti (PCJSS=People’s United Party), a political organization representing the indigenous people of CHT, and that peace has been restored in the region with a Local Government at the helm of the overwhelmingly majority representatives of the indigenous people. But the reality tells a different story: all is not well in CHT.

This note tries to show how the CHT Local Government is functioning and how autonomy of the Local Government and democracy at large are being killed for a calculated purpose: Bengali Muslim demographic invasion in CHT and marginalization and ethnic cleansing of the indigenous people under a hidden policy called “Islamization Policy”. 

CHT Local Government

As per the CHT Accord, the CHT Local Government consists of the Ministry on CHT Affairs headed by an indigenous MP and Deputy Minister in Dhaka, the CHT Regional Council (CHTRC) at the CHT main township Rangamati, three Hill District Councils (HDCs) in the three Hill District Headquarters and their subordinate bodies. And to execute and manage the planning and decisions of the CHT Local Government on the matters given to it under the CHT Accord there is a CHT local administration consisting of the three Deputy Commissioners (DCs who are usually non-indigenous people -- Bengali Muslims deputed by Dhaka -- the capital city of Bangladesh -- from Bangladesh Civil Service Cadres) of the three Hill Districts and their subordinate offices.

The CHTRC consists of the 22 elected members out of whom 15 are indigenous persons, including the Chairperson, and 7 are non-indigenous persons from among non-indigenous permanent residents.

Each of the three HDCs consists of 34 members out of whom 22 are indigenous persons, including the Chairperson, and 12 non-indigenous persons from among non-indigenous permanent residents.

As the apex Local Government body of CHT, the CHTRC supervises and coordinates the functions of the HDCs and the CHT local administration, apart from its other duties and functions. 

As per the Acts passed under the CHT Accord, the interim CHTRC has been formed soon after the 1997 CHT Accord. Most of the senior PCJSS leaders, including its President, have been nominated as members of this body. The interim HDCs have been formed with the nominated members of the ruling party [whosoever party comes to power in Bangladesh -- the current ruling party is Awami League (2009-2013) who signed the CHT Accord with PCJSS; opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) opposed the Accord and it even tried to scrape it (the Accord) during its term (2001-2007) followed by an Interim Government backed by military in 2007-2008 and in this period a case was filed in court urging for scrape of the Accord]. As per the Accord, the HDCs are supposed to be formed with the elected members; elections of the HDCs are supposed to be held after making the CHT voter list with indigenous people and non-indigenous permanent residents of CHT. The Government of Bangladesh has made the voter list with indigenous people and non-indigenous permanent and non-permanent residents (Bengali Muslim settlers) of CHT in violation of the concerned provision of the CHT Accord! No elections of the HDCs have been held over the last 15 years! In the meantime, the Government of Bangladesh has passed an ordinance authorizing the DCs to issue permanent resident certificates to all non-permanent residents of CHT in violation of the CHT Accord! As per the CHT Accord, it is only the three traditional Circle Chiefs called Rajas who have the authority to issue such certificates to permanent residents (indigenous and non-indigenous) of CHT. CHT is, it may be mentioned, divided into three Circles, each of which is headed by a Chief, as per the traditional administration of the region). 

How CHT Local Government is Functioning

The Ministry on CHT Affairs has been hijacked and made hostage to the “Islamization Policy” as stated above. 

The CHTRC has been trying hard to exercise its mandated power for proper functioning of the CHT Local Government and for realization of local autonomy. However, the Government of Bangladesh advised by CHT military strategic experts and proponents of the “Islamization Policy” in CHT continues to overlook the CHTRC and to run the CHT Local Government only with the HDCs and the CHT local administration backed by Bangladeshi military. The CHTRC and PCJSS have been pushing the Government of Bangladesh hard from inside (CHTRC) and outside (PCJSS) for proper functioning of the CHT Local Government, realization of local autonomy and proper implementation of the CHT Accord, especially resolution of land-disputes between indigenous persons and Bengali Muslim settlers and restoration of the traditional land right of the indigenous people, withdrawal of over 500 temporary Bangladeshi military camps from CHT, making the CHT voter list with indigenous people and non-indigenous permanent residents of CHT, formation of the local police with indigenous people and non-indigenous permanent residents of CHT, among others.  Not surprisingly, the Government of Bangladesh has been using (according to the order of need and convenience) the anti-CHT Accord faction (“B Team”) and elements such as, Muslim jehadi organizations (“C Team”), military (“A Team”) and the HDCs and the local administration, including police (“D Team”) -- the Teams as they are called -- against PCJSS (the party resisting the “Islamization Policy” and working for implementation of the CHT Accord) and its political and democratic movement for its calculated purpose: Bengali Muslim demographic invasion in CHT and marginalization and ethnic cleansing of the indigenous people. And it appears that the Government -- the ruling party no matter whosoever party comes to power -- is always ready with an emergency backup plan to replace the CHTRC with its favorite candidates and agents -- proponents or supporters of the said "Islamization Policy" -- in the event of the body's resignation or otherwise. This is how the CHT Accord, autonomy of the CHT Local Government and democracy at large have been made a hostage to the “Islamization Policy” of the Government of Bangladesh in CHT. It goes without saying that the policy has totally upset and undermined the objectives of the CHT Accord and already resulted in an alarming increase of Bengali Muslim population in CHT from some 7% in 1971 (when Bangladesh became an independent nation) to 60% in 2011 (the figure was 2% in 1947 when the British colonial rule ended in the Sub-continent and Pakistan and India got independence. Now Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics does not provide any information on the subject) and threatened the indigenous people to extinction.

Bangladesh has proven that it has no heart for implementation of the CHT Accord. Had it had a heart for implementation of the Accord, it would have not foul played with it (the Accord). It is foul playing with the Accord to make its way for its "Islamization Policy" in CHT-- for Bengali Muslim demographic invasion in the region and ethnic cleansing of the indigenous people.

Recommendations for Solution to the “Post-conflict” Challenges in CHT 

1. The Government of Bangladesh must stop its “Islamization Policy” in CHT and withdraw all Bengali Muslim settlers from the region with their rehabilitation in their original lands outside CHT; 

2. The Government of Bangladesh must allow the CHT Local Government to function as per its mandate. 

3. The Government of Bangladesh must implement the CHT Accord in letter and spirit and the international community must press the Government of Bangladesh for 1., 2. and 3. mentioned here and above.

Initiative to set up BGB battalion headquarters on 30 acres of lands evicting 50 families of indigenous villagers in Dighinala

A file photo of indigenous peoples in CHT

Recently the Khagrachari district administration has taken initiatives to acquire 31.63 acres of lands belonging to indigenous villagers of three villages namely Santosh Kumar Karbari Para, Gobinda Karbari Para and Notu Chandra Karbari Para of Dighinala union under Dighinala upazila in Khagrachari district for establishment of battalion headquarters of Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB).

It is learnt that, in 2002 the Home Ministry ordered the district administration to acquire land for BGB headquarter in order to strengthen security of the Bangladesh–India border of Baghaihat of Baghaichari upazila of Rangamati district and Naraichari of Dighinala upazila of Khagrachari district. The local indigenous villagers fear that at least 50 indigenous families will be evicted from their ancestral land if the scheme is implemented.

On the contrary, the local administration claimed that there are only 2.20 acres of recorded land in the name of one Ramani Mohan Chakma and another one late Birsen Chakma amid 29.81 acres of land under acquisition. The remaining 27.61 acres of land are khas land of the government.

But the indigenous villagers informed that there are recorded land of at least 15 persons and 0.30 acres of land in the name of each 58 persons given settlement by the local headman. Furthermore, there are also 2.00 acres of land recorded in the name of Baghaichari Government Primary School.

The president of school governing committee Mr. Debotoru Chakma informed that there is a helipad, an Ansar camp and an army camp on 5.20 acres of land in the identified area. The helipad was established on 2.00 acres of recoded land of one Bajaram Chakma, the army camp was constructed on the 2.20 acres recoded of land of one late Lalit Mohan Chakma and the Ansar camp was set up on 1.00 acre of recorded land of one Manoranjan Chakma.

The headman of Dighinala mouza Mr. Prantor Chakma said that the intension of government is to occupy the indigenous peoples’ land in the name of construction of army camp or BGB camp. He said that the construction of BGB camp means strengthening the settlement of Bengali settlers at the area.

It is learnt that in 1989 during the critical political situation of Chittagong Hill Tracts, the local indigenous people of the area took refuge in the neighboring country India for safety. At that time, an army zone was established at the area. They returned to the homeland in 1998 after signing the Chittagong Hill Tracts Accord, but failed to return to their homesteads. After that, they filed a writ petition in 2005 to get back their homesteads.

The Karbari of Sontosh Kumar Karbari Para Mr. Sontosh Kumar Chakma said that in 2005 total 11 persons including him filed a writ petition in High Court to get back their land which was incorporated in the extended area of the army camp. But they have not received any notice yet from the High Court. They have become astonished and helpless when the initiative to establish BGB headquarters has been taken in the meantime. One of the writ petitioners Mr. Ram Chandra Chakma said that there are total 14.20 acres of recorded land of 11 persons including him. As they have not received any notice or decision from High Court even after 8 years, finally they have started to build their homes on that land, but the army authority always obstructed them. At last, on 23 September 2013 a scuffle took place between the indigenous villagers and army due to the obstruction of the soldiers again when the indigenous peoples tried to erect houses on their land. 

On 24 September 2013 Democratic Youth Forum, PCP and Hill Women’s Federation, the branches of United Peoples’ Democratic Front (UPDF) organized a protest rally and gathering on 24 September at Dighinala and on 25 September at Khagrachari town against the clash and land grabbing. The secretary of information and publicity department of PCJSS, Mr. Mangal Kumar Chakma, in his reaction said that, construction of BGB camp through evicting public habitation will not be acceptable to anyone. He said, PCJSS would not accept it if the common people are affected.

Regarding the clash of 23 September 2013, Major Moin of Dighinala army zone said that there was no scuffle with anyone of them on that day. Rather, the tribal people were approaching toward them with sharp weaponries. He further added that official initiative is yet to be started to set up camp on this location. However, the government would acquire land through paying reasonable compensations and government can acquire any land as per requirement through paying compensations and any one has to comply with it, he said. 

Regarding the setting up of headquarters, Commander of the 51 BGB Lt. Colonel Azad said that district administration was ordered by Home Ministry to manage the land acquirement. They would start construction of BGB battalion headquarters soon after completion of the land acquisition. 

The Deputy Commissioner (DC) of Khagrachari district Mr. Masud Karim said that the acquisition process is at the final stage. The land would be acquired except the lands of 10 cases of writ petition in the High Court. When asked whether the matter was discussed with the Hill District Council, the DC said, the land would be acquired through accomplishing all legal procedures.

On the other hand, the Chittagong Hill Tracts Accord (clause 26b) states, “Notwithstanding anything contained in any other law for the time being in force, no land, hill or forest under the controlled and within the jurisdiction of the Council shall be acquired or transferred by the Government without consultation with or the consent of the Council”.
