Colonel Md. Tajul Islam, Commander of the Lakshmichari Zone, arrived at the Shuknachari Camp (Sub-zone) in Bormachari Union. It is reported that they plan to conduct operations in various areas of the region.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, on Monday (August 18), the army carried out a search operation in Hudukchari, another area within the same union.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, an emergency law and order meeting was called yesterday (August 18) at the Khiram Camp under the Lakshmichari Army Zone. Representatives and traditional village leaders (karbaris) from three unions\u2014Fatikchhari, Bormachari, and Khiram\u2014were told that their attendance was mandatory.<\/p>\n<p>At the meeting, camp Commander Atik told the public representatives and karbaris in stern language: \u201cIf any members of the UPDF (United Peoples\u2019 Democratic Front) are seen, you must report it immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also questioned the elders about whether extortion was taking place in the area.<\/p>\n<p>At one point in the discussion, Mr. Atik stated, \u201cThe road from Khiram to Bormachari, and Bormachari to Lakshmichari, will be built at any cost.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A few days ago, the commander of the Shuknachari camp, a certain Captain, sternly told some local elders who were visiting the camp: \u201cIt\u2019s going to get heated here. Even if someone is a regular civilian, he not will be spared.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Hearing such sudden and strong statements from the Captain, the attending elders were visibly alarmed and distressed. They now fear that a large-scale military operation, including house-to-house searches and arrests, could begin at any time.<\/p>\n<p>Local residents are currently living in fear and uncertainty.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lakshmichari Correspondent, CHT News Tuesday, August 19, 2025 Reports have emerged of a large military deployment in Bormachari, under Lakshmichari Upazila of Khagrachhari district, raising fears among local residents of an imminent large-scale military operation.
