The Parbatya Chattagram Jana Samhati Samiti (MN Larma) (Bengali: পার্বত্য চট্টগ্রাম জনসংহতি সমিতি (এম এন লারমা); United People's Party of the Chittagong Hill Tracts (MN Larma); abbreviated PCJSS-MN Larma), also known as the Jana Samhati Samiti (MN Larma) and JSS-MN Larma, is a regional political party and militant organization[1] in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Chittagong, Bangladesh. PCJSS-MN Larma is named after M. N. Larma, the founding leader of the PCJSS. Whilst the PCJSS demands the full implementation of the 1997 Chittagong Hill Tracts Peace Accord, the PCJSS-MN Larma still demands autonomy for the Chittagong Hill Tracts.[2] They are allegedly allied to the United People's Democratic Front (Democratic).[3]

History

[edit]

The Parbatya Chattagram Jana Samhati Samiti (MN Larma) would be formed in 2007 by a group of reformists during the 2007-2008 military-backed caretaker government of Bangladesh.[2]

On 3 May 2018, at Naniarchar Upazila, Rangamati, the vice president of the PCJSS-MN Larma, Shaktiman Chakma, would be shot at indiscriminately by three unidentified assailants who were allegedly members of the United People's Democratic Front (UPDF) while he was getting off from his motorcycle.[3] He would later die from the wounds.

On 28 May 2018, three members of the United People's Democratic Front (UPDF) would be gunned down by unidentified assailants in Korolyachhari, Baghaichhari Upazila.[4] The United People's Democratic Front would blame the attack on the PCJSS-MN Larma and the United People's Democratic Front (Democratic).[1]

On 7 July 2020, six members of the PCJSS-MN Larma would be shot dead by unidentified assailants in Bandarban.[5] Ubamong Marma, the general secretary of Bandarban District Committee of the PCJSS-MN Larma, would blame the killings on the original PCJSS.[5]
