Ethnic Community’s Awareness on Political Rights in Bangladesh A Study on the Rakhaine Community

Abstract

It is observed from this study that most of the members of the Rakhaine
community are not aware of their political rights. However, those who have a minimum
level of awareness are aware only of voting rights, political parties, meetings and
processions. The causes of poor awareness are their backwardness, lack of mobility and
dearth of education as well as the effects of demographic variables.
