Chakma literature

Chakma literature encompasses the body of written and oral works created by the Chakma community, an ethnic group native to the eastern regions of India, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. It includes poetry, folk tales, religious texts, and modern writings that reflect their culture, history, traditions, and spiritual beliefs. The literature serves as a means of preserving their language, identity, and social values, often conveyed through oral storytelling and written forms in their language, Chakma. It plays a vital role in maintaining cultural continuity and expressing their collective experiences and worldview.
