All indigenous ST(schedule Tribe) people of Hill Tract have their own weaving industry i.e traditional tent cloth and handloom industry. The design of tent cloth is different in each small nations. A woman easily can be identified in which nation she belongs to by observing her tenth cloth wearing design if she is Chakma, Marma ,Tripura, Tanchngya, Mro or of other nation. Even beyond the hill tracts this indigenous people cherish and care their own customs and traditions. For example,the Tripura girl of Srimangal weaving her own cloth to welcome the Boisuk.



Mro Trible, once were the redoubtable hunter of the hill. Now it’s very difficult to hunt in almost extinct unfathomable forest.  Due to Army forces, including land acquisition of forest division the land of Jum farming have been declining from Chimbuk Hill. Hundreds of Mro families have been evicted. To protest against this the three mro girl came to join a indigenous rally. Before this the “Chimbuk Pahare Mro”s photo blog  of Muktomona.com has been described a lot about this. There were some life images of Mro Families too.

The Chakmas are the largest in population among the Indigenous people of Chittagong Hill Tracts. They are one of the largest tribal groups of the country. The literacy rate of Chakma’s are almost 100 percent which is relatively much higher than the Bengalis. The main reason, The social movement of former guerrilla leader M.N Larma’s on spreading education. Before the formation of Guerilla group “Shantibahini” this leader (MN LARMA)the founder of Jana Sanghiti samiti(JSS) ordered to all group organizer to build school for education. Because he knew ,if the education system could be established then very hind limb the other basic needs of the indigenous people  also could be filled automatically. Now everywhere, in hills and plain there in claims of aboriginal language education.


The memory monument of the victims of Bengali settler’s violence at Bhagaichari.

Out of these current life flow cycle  the harsh reality is that in presence of Army and Bengali settler the violence occurring one after another alike Bhagaichari. At least 13 genocide has been committed by join attack of Army and Bengali settler before signing the CHT peace accord. Even after the accord the disruption happening in the quiet hill.

At least 200 indigenous house had been burnt in greedy human violence at Bhagaichari. Two people had been murdered. Its amazing that ,the patriot Army force joined to UN peace mission to maintain peace in the world, but inside the country how they kill innocent indigenous people . The main root of this violence in Hill tract is land dispute. The Hill analytic thinks, the full implementation of peace accord cum if all the basic needs of the accord does not fulfilled then the violence will continue one after another.

The Guerilla group of hill tract i.e Shantibahini had been fought two decades to establish own rights and self controlling right in Chittagong hill tract. The peace accord has been signed in exchange of almost 25000 approximately tribal and Bengalis blood. But the basic terms of the accord did not fulfill even after one and half era of Awoami league, BNP and presidential governance period. Due to lack of government unlimited action the accord became such as this. History says that the insurgency never finish fully. Again History also says that nobody learns from the history ,so history is repeating it.
