I am a Barua Buddhist .Yes, and that is the moot point, isn't it. Your ancestral lands have been usurped by the colonial Bengali settlers to the extent that you are fighting for survival. Perhaps the Barua Bengali Buddhists are better off than the tribals.
Kaptai dam is just another flashpoint in the ever rising graph of tribal domination by the Bengali muslims. Why is your secular Bangladeshi government still dithering to implement the CHT accord even after two and a half decades?
You are wrong. We Barua Buddhists also care about our tribal Buddhist brothers.Yes, and that is the moot point, isn't it.

That was evident from your posts.I am a Barua Buddhist .
The same story of Tripura and Assam being played in CHT, nothing surprising there.Before the 1980s, CHT was sparsely populated, only few areas were populated. The government then relocated bengalis from other parts of Bangladesh. But they did not snatch homes belonging to locals.
Except Tripura Chakmas are pesecuted all over India.Of course, Chakmas are expected to go to Dhaka for lack of opportunities in their region devoid of development. You will find the persecuted Chakma refugees seeking shelter in Tripura, Mizoram, Assam etc going to Delhi and Kolkata for a better life. That is a natural course of life, but it doesn't obfuscate the trauma they underwent at the hands of Bengali muslims.
Who told you this brother. Tribals still constitutes around 60 to 65% of the total population of CHT. In the local election, you will find only tribal candidates.That was evident from your posts.

CHT was declared an autonomous region as early as the mid 1800s by the British, the status quo changed first by Pakistan and maintained by Bangladesh. How the the tribal population there reach to under 10 pc from around 90, ever gave that a thought? Orchestrated violence by state apparatus and language imposition by the Bengali muslims dealt the final blow after forceful eviction via short-sighted projects.

Also, there is something called land commission in CHT. No outsider can buy land in CHT without permission from the tribal committee. But tribals can buy land anywhere in other parts of Bangladesh.
Moreover you were wrong when you said that there are no development in CHT. Recently our PM inaugurated a hospital, medical college and University in CHT. CHT is a very distant place. You can't compare cht with Dhaka or Chittagong. There are many parts of Bangladesh which are also underdeveloped.
