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 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.[1] They are allegedly allied to the United People's Democratic Front (Democratic).[2]
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.[1]
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.[2] 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.[3] The United People's Democratic Front would blame the attack on the PCJSS-MN Larma and the United People's Democratic Front (Democratic).[4]
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]
