PCJSS

Since creation of Pakistan in 1947, officials along with businessmen from among the Bengali people of the then East Pakistan were the actual rulers of CHT, who pursued hostile policy toward the Jumma people. With the emergence of Bangladesh as a nation state of the Bengali people in 1971 the same vested interest groups accelerated implementation of the former policy for total extermination of the Jumma people.
As a part of the said policy the Government of Bangladesh patronized the program for change of demographic position of population in CHT through migration of Bengali people from other parts of the country since 1971. On the other, the government set up military installations and let loose the military, para-military and police forces for committing massive atrocities including massacres against the Jumma people. As armed resistance led by PCJSS commenced in mid 1976 the government accelerated the "Scorched Earth Program". In order to supplement it, the government took up a scheme for transmigration of population, under which 5 (five) million Bengali people from other parts of the country were settled in CHT and these political migrants were used as human shield. As there was not cultivable and khas plain lands so they were resettled on the lands of the Jumma people, who were evicted through committing atrocities including massacres by the political migrants and the military and para-military forces.
Since 1971 the government launched undeclared war against the Jumma people for their total extermination. As a consequence to it, approximately 35,000 Jumma people lost their life, 500,000 Jumma people were internally displaced and 80,000 above Jumma people were compelled to take refuge in Tripura and Mizoram states of India. Some of the most notable massacres/ genocide were shown below.
It was a program of ruthless Islamization and political marginalization of the Jumma people in the name of counter-insurgency measure. With an aim to uproot the Jumma people from their ancestral land, a long series of massacres and genocide were perpetrated by the Bengali settlers with the direct help of army, Anser, APBN (Armed Police Battalion) and VDP (Village Defense Party). As such it left a horrible legacy of violence, rape, loot, murder, arson, abduction and forcible conversion, sacrilege of religion and forcible occupation of Jummas’ land and property as well as gross violation of human rights for more than two decades. Hundreds of Jumma women lost their lives, prestige and chastity. Thousand of Jumma people were ousted from their own hearth and home. Of them about 70 thousands Jumma took shelter in India as refugee and hundred thousands in deep forest of remote areas within the country. Thousands of indigenous children were deprived of education, health care and basic needs. The major ethnocides are as follows:

* More than 150 houses of Jumma people were burnt to ashes.
** More than 200 houses of Jumma locality were burnt to ashes.

Post-CHT Accord period
The 24 Infantry Division of Bangladesh Army was entrusted responsibility to combat the armed struggle of the PCJSS and of the Jumma people in mid 1970s under the Programme ‘Operation Dabanal’. They still hold the same power imposed on them in the post Accord period under the same programme renamed ‘Operation Uttoran’. The orientation course to them too continues as before. Consequently, they continue having the same attitude toward CHT and Jumma people. With direct support from the military and police forces, Bengali settlers conducted some large-scale attacks on the Jumma villages for making rooms for them, such as -
