Systems loss
As part of the government's measure to implement CHT peace accord, one brigade of the army comprising 35 army camps and 3 infantry battalions shall be withdrawn from Chittagong Hill Tracts by Sept'09. The process has already been started with the withdrawal of some army camps. It is alright if the service of the army is not required there and in that case their continual stay is nothing but mere wastage of govt. money. It is learnt from the newspapers that one brigade comprises not less than 3,000 persons. There is no other alternative but to maintain these personnel keeping them idle without any job. Again this is wastage of govt. money. So this loss being incurred is due to government's action. This is govt. systems loss like the systems loss in the power sector. The govt. systems loss is a very common phenomenon in all government agencies, small or big but this is not being taken into account seriously.
