Chakma

Chakma refers to both an ethnic group and their language, primarily found in Bangladesh and India, particularly in the state of Mizoram. The Chakmas are known for their distinct cultural practices, including traditional dress, music, and festivals, and they often follow Buddhism. Their language, also called Chakma, belongs to the Tibeto-Burman family. The Chakma community has faced various challenges, including issues related to land rights and preservation of their cultural identity. Despite these challenges, they continue to strive for recognition and rights in their regions.
