Cumilla Division | The demand of Time



In the Nineteen Sixties, greater mass movement was formed for the implementation of the Cumilla division in the country. It is known that the provincial council was raised in the context of the rationality of the establishment of the division and mass movement in Comilla. In 1994, the leader of the opposition, the current Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said in a meeting on Comilla Railway Station, while going to Chittagong from Dhaka, The leader said that the Comilla will be a Division if Bangladesh Awami League came to power.

Based on the number of population and the number of MPs (Member of Parliament) and other criterias, it is fair to divide the region of Cumilla as a division.

  • There are 16 MPs in Chittagong, 4 MPs in Cox's Bazar, 1 MP from Rangamati, 1 MP from Khagrachari and 1 MP from Bandarban district. Total number of MPs from 5 districts of Chittagong and Hill Tracts area is 23.
  • From the greater Cumilla and Noakhali region there are 11 MPs from Cumilla district, 6 MPs from Noakhali district, 6 MPs from Brahmanbaria, 5 MPs from Chandpur, 4 MPs from Laxmipur and 3 MPs from Feni district. There are total 35 MPs from the Greater Comilla and Noakhali region.
  • From these 35 numbers of MPs, Twenty Two are from three districts of greater Comilla area.
  • According to the 2011 population census of Bangladesh Government, the total population of Chittagong and Chittagong Hill Tracts was 1 Crore 18 Lac and 41 thousand.
  • Based on the same census in 2011, the total population of the Greater Comilla and Noakhali region was 1 Crore 76 Lac 38 Thousand and 963.
  • The population of Greater Comilla region was 1 Crore 10 Lac 43 Thousand and 386.
  • Greater Noakhali area population was 65 Lac 96 Thousand and 577.
  • The total area of Chittagong division is 33,771 square kilometers.
  • The Chattogram Division is a large one having 11 numbers of districts, 2 city corporations, 100 upazilas, 61 municipalities/pourasava, 120 police stations and 946 union parishads.



Many Divisions in Bangladesh have been formed with fewer population and fewer MPs. Though judging from the population and Members of Parliament, the claim for Comilla division is fair. It seems to be very difficult to control the whole area by one divisional Commissioner. The biggest thing is that it’s also hinders for the development of the region. At the same time, the government's financial expenditures also increasing due to various system losses. By dividing Comilla, the expenditure can be reduced.

At present, there are no more divisions in the country that has 11 numbers of districts except Chattogram Division. Large sections have been divided for administrative decentralization across the country. Now, Comilla should be divided for the time being. Otherwise, this region will be wrongly judged and the development oriented people will be affected by extreme discrimination.

Cumilla is required to establish as a division through the decentralization in order to reach the state's doorstep for the establishment of strong administrative structure, balanced development and for good governance. There are 50 government and non-government departments and organizations office in Comilla - Noakhali territories. Many of these departments will not have to be re-established if divide Comilla. These will be established as divisional offices.

Cumilla has a glorious position in numbers of the educational institutions, it is called educational hub. At present, there are five Medical Colleges (One public and four private), five Universities in Cumilla (One public and four private) located around the Cumilla city.

The roads and communication systems of the region was developed for a very long time. Inside this district, 112-kilometer portion of the Dhaka-Chittagong National highway, which is known as the country's economic gateway, has been dispersed. The Cumilla district is surrounded by five of the six districts of greater Comilla and Noakhali region. Only the Lakshmipur district is a little away, but the roads and communication system is well with Lakshmipur.

Brahmanbaria district situated on the north side of Comilla, Chandpur district on the south-west side, Noakhali and Lakshmipur district on the south side and Feni district is located on the south-east side.

For International Border with India, it is very easy to make inter-country communication via road, railway and waterway (via Gomti River) to boost trade and commerce of the country. Considering the communication system, the Comilla division has the right priority.

The implementation of the Comilla division has now become a mass demand for the time being. Comilla Gonodabi Parishad has been in the movement for three decades in the context of this claim. Comilla's long-standing demand came forward even after the recent Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina decided to break the Chittagong division into another division. As a result, people of the area believe that their long-standing demand will be in reality soon.

It was people's usual demand for establishing a new division comprising with these six districts. So, the demand for the life of the large population of the greater Cumilla area will come true soon. People of these areas now believe it.

The demand of the peoples: Cumilla Division!


Thanks,
