In the last few days, we have been witnessing unrest in the Hill Tracts. This is without a shadow of a doubt instigated by Hasina and Awami League, and also very likely with assistance from Indian Govt.
The reason I am bringing India into the equation is because of the confession of Shantu Larma, who was the leader of the insurgency group Shanti Bahini from 70s to 90s. They openly claimed India had been supporting them in their revolt against the government of Bangladesh.
(Refer to:
This notorious insurgency group has killed thousands of Bengalis, including military personnel and other Tribal opponents.
A peace treaty was signed by Hasina govt in 1997, the terms of which BNP did not agree with as it deemed it unpatriotic. Nonetheless, the terms of the treaty has not yet been fulfilled, even though Hasina govt was in power for last decade and a half. Likewise, the insurgency never really stopped as there had been sporadic killings in the Hill Tracts and continued heavy military presence.
Despite the treaty, there had always been discontent amongst the tribes in Hill Tracts regarding Bengalis settling in Hill Tracts.
And now under the deteriorated law and order situation, the insurgents are making a stronger comeback with help of BAL, and possibly Indian government.
Section 144 has been issued in Khagrachari district today banning all sorts of gathering. I believe the situation is going to get worse in the coming days as BAL will utilize CHT insurgents to destabilize Bangladesh and make a comeback to power.
This thread is going to be a master thread for all Chittagong Hill Tracts security related issues.
