New Nation: Call to review CHT treaty

Speakers at a discussion meeting yesterday demanded of the government to review the Chittagong Hill Tracts Treaty (CHTT) saying the treaty contradicts with the Constitution of the country.

Speakers demanded this at a roundtable conference on 'Reviewing the Chittagong Hill Tracts Treaty According to the Constitution' organised by the Chittagong Hill Tracts Equal Rights Movement at the National Press Club.

Speakers said many provisions of the treaty contradict many articles of the Constitution and were discriminatory to the Bangalis in the hills >detail> http://nation.ittefaq.com/issues/2008/01/28/news0190.htm
