Looks like you want to wipe out the concepts "Chakma", "Gorkha", and so on! You are forcing them to wear "Bengali" tokma.

We recognize Chakma, Sawtal, Garoo, etc. etc. as various Jatis, and I am sure they have no trouble recognizing us as Bangalee. In fact they do. It seems like some Bangalees are having trouble recognizing their own Jati. Our Jati does not change based on our citizenship. We are always Bangalee wherever we live. The right way to address this issue is as follows: a Bangalee, living in Bangladesh, is Bangladeshi-Bangalee; a Bangalee, living in Parchimbanga, is Indian-Bangalee; a Bangalee, living in the USA, is American-Bangalee; etc., etc., and the same is true for all other Jatis also.
