\nSunday, 28 September 2025<\/p>\n

In the greater interest of the nation and the people, the United People’s Democratic Front (UPDF) has called upon the Jana Samhati Samiti (JSS \u2013 Santu faction) to end the bloody fratricidal conflict and adopt a joint program protesting the rape of a teenage student in Singinala, Khagrachari. UPDF also urged JSS (Santu) to withdraw its armed members from Panchari and Dighinala in Khagrachari district and bring them back to areas under their own control.<\/p>\n

Today, Sunday (28 September 2025), UPDF Vice President Nuton Kumar Chakma made this call in an urgent statement to the media.<\/p>\n

Describing the bloody fratricidal conflict that has been raging for the past 27 years as a terrible curse for the nation, he said, \u201cUPDF has never wanted this conflict, does not want it now, and has therefore always fully respected the understanding reached through discussions with JSS (Santu) in 2018.\u201d<\/p>\n

The UPDF leader expressed hope that the JSS (Santu) leadership would show proper respect for the people\u2019s aspiration for unity and would immediately stop armed provocations and conflicts in various places, and sincerely join the ongoing popular movement.<\/p>\n
