Abstract
As an abstinence of the UN Refugee Convention, Bangladesh does not have an obligation to protect her inward refugees, and the Rohingya are one of the challenging concerns. This chapter aims to discuss human rights in light of international treaties/documents concerning the Rohingya community in Bangladesh when they are a stateless community, not refugees. Methodologically, this study takes the critical discourse analysis approach aided by secondary data. The study found that the community is competing with the majority of Bengali to access the common resources or property pools like forests, rivers, and beaches. This study concludes with a solid proposal of international legal frameworks' ratification and to make some local legal provisions for policy accelerating to reach the SDGs 2030.
