Just like other citizens, we have the right to live safely and peacefully in our homes. But due to the military operations, we are unable to live in peace. The army enters our homes at any time, day or night, without permission. Under the pretense of conducting searches, they ransack everything in the house \u2014 even looting people&#8217;s saved money and important documents. Not only that, innocent people are being beaten without reason and are subjected to mental torture under the guise of interrogation. What the military is doing is deeply unjust and illegal. From this assembly, we strongly condemn and protest against such injustices and abuses by the army.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He further added:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring these operations, army personnel occupy our schools, disrupting all academic activities. Classes get canceled. The people of the area live in constant fear. Many are forced to flee into the forests or elsewhere out of fear. This severely hampers the villagers&#8217; normal way of life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also said:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe army claims to search for terrorists during operations, but in reality, they themselves are creating and fostering terrorist groups. They bring terrorists along during operations. These terrorists live and move with them day and night. But instead of arresting those terrorists, the military harasses and detains innocent people and slaps false charges against them to imprison them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Referring to an incident on 20 September in Jagpara, where Supravat Chakma, Nishant Chakma, and Ripen Chakma were beaten during a military operation, Jinim Chakma questioned:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat was their crime? Why were they subjected to such inhumane torture? What crime did the people whose homes were searched or destroyed and who were ordered to leave their villages commit? Is being a hill person their only \u2018crime\u2019? They didn&#8217;t commit theft, robbery, terrorism, extortion, or destroy anyone\u2019s fields \u2014 then why are they being tortured? What kind of country is this? Is this not their country? Is this not the country of the hill people too?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In his concluding remarks, Jinim Chakma called upon the people:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe cannot afford to remain afraid any longer. The more we stay silent in fear, the more the oppression will increase. And why should we be afraid? We have committed no crimes or wrongdoing. Those who are torturing and abusing innocent people \u2014 they are the real criminals. They should be the ones afraid.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5400 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1381\" height=\"607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec.jpg 1381w, https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec-1024x450.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec-768x338.jpg 768w, https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec-696x306.jpg 696w, https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec-1068x469.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/chtnews.com\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/\u09aa\u09be\u09a8\u099b\u09a1\u09bc\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7-\u09ac\u09bf\u0995\u09cd\u09b7\u09cb\u09ad\u09ec-956x420.jpg 956w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1381px) 100vw, 1381px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the people rise up together, they (the oppressors) do get scared. No matter how powerful they appear, they are the ones doing wrong \u2014 and wrongdoers are always cowardly. That\u2019s why they try to intimidate the people. But when the people overcome fear and stand united to resist, the oppressors flee. Remember, on August 5 last year, when the people rose up united, Sheikh Hasina was forced to flee the country. Even she seemed powerful before her fall. If we, the people of the Chittagong Hill Tracts, rise up together and build resistance, the oppressive regime will find no place to hide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He urged people to build a movement in the Chittagong Hill Tracts against the state\u2019s injustice and oppression, saying: \u201cThe military is committing these atrocities to destroy us \u2014 to wipe us out as a people. We can no longer remain silent. We must protest and fight for our just rights. There is no other way forward for us but to struggle for survival.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a final warning to the government and the ruling authorities, he said: \u201cThere is no greater power in the world than the people. Don\u2019t flaunt your power arrogantly. Remember, a time may come when that power could crumble in an instant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Six-point demands were raised at the protest, which include:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Immediately stop the harassment, abuse, detention of innocent people, and occupation of schools that disrupt education under the name of military operations.<\/li>\n<li>Stop entering people\u2019s homes without permission to conduct searches.<\/li>\n<li>Arrest the terrorists residing near army camps.<\/li>\n<li>Disband the vigilante groups (armed auxiliary force) and bring them to justice.<\/li>\n<li>Return all money and belongings looted during operations, and compensate those who suffered losses.<\/li>\n<li>End the ongoing military rule under the name \u201cOperation Uttoron.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Slogans displayed on placards and banners:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stop torture under the guise of military operations<\/li>\n<li>Stop house raids and harassment<\/li>\n<li>Stop looting in the name of searches<\/li>\n<li>Stop military thuggery<\/li>\n<li>End military rule under \u201cOperation Uttoron\u201d<\/li>\n<li>The military is the sponsor of terrorism<\/li>\n<li>We don\u2019t want an oppressive army<\/li>\n<li>Stop army-vigilante violence<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t turn our schools into army camps<\/li>\n<li>We want teachers in schools, not soldiers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Military Surveillance:<\/p>\n<p>It was reported that, in an attempt to disrupt the protest, a 30-member military team was deployed early in the morning via Fatema Nagar to Birendra Para, west of Pujgang High School.
