CHT land survey rules in 15 days
Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) Land Commission will decide within next 15 days on the modalities for CHT land survey beginning from October 15, the commission chief said.
Khademul Islam Chowdhury, chairman of the commission, said at a meeting at Khagrachhari yesterday that the survey would be completed by March 15 next year.
Terming the CHT Land Commission an absolutely independent body, he said they are working with full strength aiming to resolve land disputes in the hill tracts region.
"During the survey period, we will ask people to submit to the commission the copies of their cases on land dispute," the commission chief said.
Asked about continuous absence of CHT Regional Council Chairman Joytirindra Bodhipriya Larma alias Santu Larma from the commission meeting, justice Chowdhury said, “That doesn't mean he is not cooperative.”
Khagrachhari Hill District Council Chairman Ruhity Karbari and Additional Divisional Commissioner of Chittagong Md Nurul Islam attended the meeting.
