The most populous indigenous peoples in Bangladesh are the Santal (200,000), Chakma (195,000), Marma (66,000) and Mandi (60,000). Of these the first and last are considered plains-dwelling Adivasis, with the Mandi living in north-central Bangladesh and the Santal in the north-west. In comparison with Bengalis, Adivasis are generally regarded by Bengalis themselves as more open, friendly, generous and honest. They have a strong relationship with the land and there is a deep interrelationship between their religious beliefs (animism) and their social structure. The CHT covers 10 per cent of the total area of Bangladesh and is home to twelve or thirteen different indigenous peoples of which Chakma, Marma and Tripura total approximately 90 per cent. Sometimes know collectively as Jumma, because of their traditional shifting – jum – method of cultivation, these groups belong to the Tibeto-Burmese language group. Chakma account for more than half the indigenous population of the CHT. They and the Marma are Buddhist, while Tripura are Hindus. (Source: UNHCR--- World Directory of Minorities and Indigenous Peoples Bangladesh: Adivasis). These Adivasis are targeted for many reasons, even for fun to have some games with different sort of people. As many of them are not only poor, they are too illiterate to express their rights in the way that the law makers and executive authorities would understand. The indigenous people‟s residence CHT is a military controlled area and hence, the source of information is mostly controlled by the military and government. Hence, we may not have the most recent and updated accurate news about the human rights issues for indigenous women. But one thing is crystal clear that the peace there is never practically brought and their women‟s rights have not been significantly improved. As said in the article „Bangladesh: Rape and repression continue, despite promises of peace 19 January 2010‟. (Source: http://www.survivalinternational.org/news/5438).
