Present Scenario of Rangamati.

In 1989, Government enacted the following laws relating to Chittagong Hill Tracts :
(a) Repeal of 1900 Reuglation ( Act No. XVI of 1989)
(b) Rangamati Local Govt. Council Act ( Act No. XIX of 1989)
As per Act of Rangamati local Govt. Council, 15 departments/subjects have been transferred to Zilla Parishad and few more departments are in the process of transfer to the Zilla Parishad.
On 2nd December 1997, peace accord between govt. and PCJSS was concluded and that was passed in the parliament, Under this agreement, Ministry of Hill Tracts Affairs & Regional Council have been setup and many changes have been brought in the Act of Zilla Parishad. As per peace accord, Chairmanships of Zilla Parishad, Regional Council and Refugee Rehabilitation Taskforce are kept reserve for tribal people. Unlike plain districts, Chairman of Zilla Parishad presides over the monthly co-ordination meeting. Apart from this, Chittagong Hill Tracts Development Board is a active player in the field of development work. Circle chief, Raja of the tribal people, also plays a vital role in administration. International Agencies like UNDP and ADB are directly involved in implementing some development works in this district.
Against the peace treaty and demand for complete autonomy of this region, an organization in the name of UPDF has been formed. UPDF & PCJSS are in confrontation to each other and creating unrest in Hill Tracts. Apart from this, non-tribal people have also formed different organization in the name of Hill Tracts Bangali Gana Parishad, Adibashi Bangali Parishad etc. to establish their rights & demands, However, the overall law & order situation in this region is much better than that of pre-peace treaty period. But there is every possibility to deteriorate law & order due to mistrust exist between tribal & non-tribal people as well as terrorist activities between PCJSS & UPDF. So, the task of the Deputy Commissioner is becoming challenging day by day. Because, he is primarily responsible for maintaining the law & order in the district.

Superintendent to Deputy commissioner & Chandragona to Rangamati.


In 1867, the official designation of the officer in charge of the Hill Tracts of Chittagong was changed from Superintendent to Deputy Commissioner and he was vested with full control of all matters pertaining both to revenue and justice. In 1868, head quarter of the district was transferred from Chandraghona to Rangamati for administrative reasons.

Under the East India Company (1760-1947) and creation of Chittagong Hill Tracts as a district with its H.Q. at Chandragona.

The hill tribes living within Hill Tracts had constantly been subject to raid from the independent tribes and in consequences of an attack on a fort situated on the Kaptai Khal, the Commissioner in 1859 recommended the removal of the Hill Tracts from the Regulation District and the appointment of a Superintendent over the hill tribes. Both of these recommendations were adopted by act XXII, 1860. Accordingly, the Hill Tracts were separated from the Regulation District and an officer with the title of Superintendent of hill tribes was appointed. The hills in his charge were henceforth known by the name of Hill Tracts of Chittagong with its head quarter at Chandraghona.
