Rubber plantation in Ramu freed from encroachment with help of Army
District administration, with the help of Bangladesh Army, yesterday (11 August) conducted a drive in Cox's Bazar's Ramu upazila and freed about 50 acres of government rubber plantation land from encroachment.
Confirming the matter, Assistant Commissioner (Land) Sajjad Jahid Ratul said about 20 houses at the plantation were evacuated during the drive.
In April 2022, an influential group occupied the area by cutting down 8,700 rubber saplings planted on 50 acres of land, according to the plantation's Manager Zulfikar Ali.
