contents An old conjecture in non-Kähler geometry states that, if a compact Hermitian manifold has constant holomorphic sectional curvature, then the metric must be Kähler (when the constant is non-zero) or Chern flat (when the constant is zero). It is known to be true in complex dimension $2$ by the work of Balas and Gauduchon in 1985 (when the constant is negative or zero) and Apostolov, Davidov and Muskarov in 1996 (when the constant is positive). In dimension $3$ or higher, the conjecture is only known in some special cases, such as the locally conformally Kähler case (when the constant is negative or zero) by the work of Chen, Chen and Nie, or for complex nilmanifolds with nilpotent $J$ by the work of Li and the second named author. In this note, we confirm the above conjecture for all non-balanced Bismut torsion parallel (BTP) manifolds. Here the BTP condition means that the Bismut connection has parallel torsion. In particular, the conjecture is valid for all Vaisman manifolds.
