Parbatya Chattagram Janashakti Samiti

Parbatya Chattagram Janashakti Samiti (PCJSS) is a political organization representing the indigenous Chakma and other ethnic communities in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh. Founded in 1972, its primary aim is to advocate for the rights, autonomy, and development of hill tribes who have historically faced marginalization. The organization seeks to ensure recognition of their cultural identity, land rights, and self-governance, often engaging in negotiations with the government to promote peaceful coexistence and address issues unique to their communities. It plays a crucial role in representing indigenous interests within Bangladesh's political landscape.
