Noakhali Sadar Upazila
Noakhali Sadar (Bengali: নোয়াখালি সদর) is an upazila of Noakhali District in Chattogram, Bangladesh.
Noakhali Sadar Upazila has a total area of 336.06 square kilometres (129.75 sq mi). It borders Begumganj Upazila to the north, Kabirhat Upazila to the east, Suborno Char Upazila to the south, and Komolnagar and Lakshmipur Sadar upazilas of Lakshmipur District to the west. The Noakhali Canal flows north through the upazila.
Noakhali Thana was established in 1861 and was converted into an upazila in 1984. It is the subdistrict where the district headquarters, Noakhali town, is located. The town is situated on the western bank of the Noakhali Canal, from which it takes its name. The Noakhali Canal was dug in 1660 to control flooding of Dakatia River. The name Noakhali means "New canal", derived from the Bengali words noa (new) and khal (canal).
According to the 2022 Bangladeshi census, Noakhali Sadar Upazila had 137,912 households and a population of 642,494. 10.99% of the population were under 5 years of age. Noakhali Sadar had a literacy rate (age 7 and over) of 75.10%: 75.18% for males and 75.02% for females, and a sex ratio of 95.83 males for every 100 females. 160,042 (24.91%) lived in urban areas.
Noakhali Sadar had a literacy rate (age 7 and over) of 51.73%, compared to the national average of 51.8%, and a sex ratio of 1081 females per 1000 males. 130,842 (24.88%) lived in urban areas.
The boundaries of the upazila were redrawn in 2005 to create a new upazila, Subarnachar, and again in 2006 to create Kabirhat Upazila. The combined population of the three in 2011 was 1,012,392, a 32% increase from 2001.
The most popular sports in the upazila are football and cricket. Shaheed Bulu Stadium is used for both, as well as for large community gatherings such as Victory Day celebrations.
