Bangladesh army evade fare from indigenous business in BaghaichariOn 13 August l994, more than 80 soldiers of Bangladesh army led by Lt. Col. Mahbub Hossain travelled from Baghaihat Bazar to Gangaram Mukh in Baghaichari by a motor launch owned by Mr. Braja Kumar Chakma, son of Mr. Binoyban Chakma of Kadamtali village in Baghaichari without paying their fares. India was partitioned on the basis of religion in 1947. 98.5% of the CHT population was non-Muslim during the partition. The indigenous people of CHT opted to join either India or Burma. But Muslim League conspired with the Boundary Commission and illegally annexed CHT with East Pakistan in violation of the principle of partition. Successive Bangladesh governments have been sponsoring Muslim settlers from plain land to dilute the indigenous people of CHT. Bangladesh army's role in CHT is to protect the Muslim settlers and carry out massacre, land grab, rape, religious persecution and ethnic cleansing against indigenous Buddhist, Hindu and Animist people in CHT.
