Call to free CHT from terrorists

Leaders of the Fight for Equal Rights in Chittagong Hill-Tracts said peace keeping in the Hill Tracts was not prevailing even after 10 years of the peace accord signed on December 2 in 1997.The peace accord failed to stop gun-battle, killing, extortion and terrorism and caused sufferings to Bengalis who live in the region.The movement urged to make Chittagong Hill Tracts free from Jummaland terrorists and said JSS, UPDF and Jhum People Network have been hatching a conspiracy to detach Chittagong Hill Tracts, one-tenth of country, for the last 36 years.Bengalis of the Hill Tracts were being repressed by the tribal terrorists at various parts of the three districts of Chittagong Hill Tracts. Now Bengalis of the area were neglected and deprived from their rights, the press release of the movement claimed.Terming the peace accord as a black agreement and December 2 as a black day, the movement said the accord is contradictory to the Constitution of the country and discriminatory.It also urged all to come forward to create public opinion against the accord.
