Interview with Brigadier retired General Hannan Shah


The military is being withdrawn from the Chittagong Hill Tracts ostensibly as part of implementing the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) peace accord of 1997. Many see this as a security threat to the region. As a former military officer, how do you view this?
