The CHT area encompasses forests, rivers, lake, natural waterfalls, and other natural resources including enriched jungles. However, these initiatives are completely ignoring the special administrative system of the CHT and have no regard for the traditional lifestyles of the local, tribal people. On the other hand, the government is spending a lot of money on militarisation in CHT in the name of security. Even after the signing of the CHT Accord, various projects, like the construction of the Science & Technology University and Medical College, are wrongfully evicting the local Jumma people from their homes. Despite having signed the CHT Accord, the government is still ignoring the CHT Accord and the institutions established by it.
