In the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT), a region marked by intensified development initiatives, cultural harmony between Bangali residents and ethnic minorities continues to endure. The Bangladesh Army, alongside other law enforcement agencies, is actively implementing various programmes aimed at promoting peaceful coexistence. These initiatives include cultural programmes, marathons, sports events, and harmony meetings that involve different ethnic communities.

Joint Efforts for Stability

Members of the Bangladesh Army, police, Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB), Ansar, and other law enforcement agencies are collaborating to maintain communal harmony and ensure stability in the three hill districts of Bandarban, Rangamati, and Khagrachhari. Intensified patrols and security operations are being conducted to uphold law and order.

Promoting Cultural Exchange

On the occasion of the “International Day of the World’s Indigenous Peoples 2026”, law enforcement agencies remain on high alert in the CHT to prevent any disruption. Regular harmony meetings are held with representatives of various ethnic groups to strengthen mutual understanding and prevent minor misunderstandings from escalating into major unrest.

Community Involvement and Welfare Activities

Police authorities frequently organise cultural events to promote cultural exchange, coexistence, and social cohesion. The Army is also engaged in various welfare activities in remote areas, including providing free medical services, supporting education, and transporting critically ill patients to hospitals.
