History

[edit]

Rangamati Hill District Council was established in 1989 along with Bandarban Hill District Council and Khagrachhari Hill District Council through direct elections.[5] Rangamati Hill District Councils can be dismissed and formed by the government and change with changes in the national government.[6] According to the Chittagong Hill Tracts Peace Treaty the government handed over administrative responsibilities of eight educational institutions to the Rangamati Hill District Council in November 2006.[7] The council was increased to 10 members and reserved three of the seats for non-tribals in November 2014.[8] The bill created a seat in the council for every tribe in the district with the Chakma people receiving the largest at 4 seats.[9]
