An '''''upazila''''' ({{langx|bn|উপজেলা|upajēlā|lit=sub-district}} <small>pronounced:</small> {{IPA|bn|'upɘdʒeːlaː|}}), formerly called '''''thana''''', is an [[administrative division]] in Bangladesh, functioning as a sub-unit of a [[districts of Bangladesh|district]]. It can be seen as an analogous to a [[county]] or a [[borough]] of Western countries. Rural upazilas are further administratively divided into [[Union councils of Bangladesh|union council areas]] (union parishads).
The [[Districts of Bangladesh|districts]] of [[Bangladesh]] are divided into subdistricts called Upazila ([[Bengali language|Bengali]] <big>উপজেলা</big> ''upojela'') or Thana. Upazilas are similar to the [[county]] subdivisions found in some [[Western world|Western]] countries.


Bangladesh, at present, has 500 upazilas and 509 administrative [[Administrative divisions of Bangladesh|thana]]s<ref name=Banglapedia>{{cite book|author=AMM Shawkat Ali|chapter=Thana|url=http://www.banglapedia.org/HT/T_0137.HTM|title=Banglapedia: National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh|editor=Sirajul Islam|publisher=[[Asiatic Society of Bangladesh]]|year=2006}}</ref>{{cn|reason=numbers appear to be out of date, but the explanation seems plausible; another citation for the current number would be useful|date=July 2013}} for a total of 1009 subdistricts. The upazilas/thanas are the second lowest tier of regional administration in Bangladesh. The administrative structure consists in fact in Divisions (7), Districts (64), Upazila/Thana and Union Parishads (UPs). This system of [[devolution]] was introduced by the former military ruler and [[President of Bangladesh]], [[Lieutenant General]] [[Hossain Mohammad Ershad]], in an attempt to strengthen local government.

== History ==
{{further|Thanas of Bangladesh}}
Upazilas were formerly known as ''thana'', which literally means police station. Despite the meaning, thanas functioned much as an administrative and geographic region, much as today's upazilas. In 1982 thanas were re-termed to as upazilas with provisions for semi-autonomous local governance. This system was reverted to the thana system in 1992. Later in 1999 geographic regions under administrations of thanas were converted into upazilas.<ref>{{cite book|author=AMM Shawkat Ali|chapter=Thana|url=http://en.banglapedia.org/index.php?title=Thana|title=Banglapedia: National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh|editor=Sirajul Islam and Ahmed A. Jamal|publisher=[[Asiatic Society of Bangladesh]]|year=2012|edition=Second|access-date=6 August 2015|archive-date=15 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171215163738/http://en.banglapedia.org/index.php?title=Thana|url-status=live}}</ref> All administrative terms in this level were renamed from ''thana'' to ''upazila''. For instance, thana nirbahi officer (<small>lit.</small> thana executive officer) was renamed upazila nirbahi officer (<small>lit. </small>upazila executive officer).


The word ''thana'' is now used to solely refer to ''police stations''. Generally, there is one police station for each upazila, but larger administrative units may have more than one police station covering different regions. However, it was complicated again and currently, Upazilas which combinely form "Administrative [[Districts]]" are known as Thanas.
Each '''Upazila Parishad''' (or council) has a chairman, a vice chairman and a woman vice chairman. All three are elected through direct popular election. Union Parishad chairmen within the upazila are considered as the members of the ''porishod''. The post of a '''woman vice chairman''' was created to ensure at least one-third woman representation in the all elected posts of the local government.
For example: [[Panchlaish Thana]], [[Double Mooring Thana]] under [[Chittagong]] district.<!-- needs a bit of rework to cover special cases like in Dhaka metropolitan police -->


On 26 July 2021, [[Khandker Anwarul Islam]] announced the renaming of [[Shantiganj Upazila|Dakshin Sunamganj Upazila]] to "''Shantiganj Upazila''" as well as the creation of three new upazilas; [[Eidgaon Upazila]] in [[Cox's Bazar District]], [[Madhyanagar Upazila]] in [[Sunamganj District]] and [[Dasar Upazila]] in [[Madaripur District]].<ref>{{cite news|work=[[Dhaka Tribune]]|title=Three new upazilas in Madaripur, Cox's Bazar and Sunamganj|date=26 July 2021|url=https://www.dhakatribune.com/bangladesh/2021/07/26/three-new-upazilas-in-madaripur-cox-s-bazar-and-sunamganj|access-date=26 July 2021|archive-date=26 July 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210726155536/https://www.dhakatribune.com/bangladesh/2021/07/26/three-new-upazilas-in-madaripur-cox-s-bazar-and-sunamganj|url-status=live}}</ref>
There is a non-elected administrative [[Upazila Nirbahi Officer]] (UNO, or Upazila Executive Officer; {{lang-bn|উপজেলা নির্বাহী কর্মকর্তা}}) in each Upazila. UNOs are Senior [[Assistant Secretary]] of [[Bangladesh Civil Service]] (BCS). They act as executive officer of the upazila under the elected posts.

An upazila (Bengali: উপজেলা, romanized: upajēlā, lit. 'sub-district' pronounced: ['upɘdʒeːlaː]), formerly called thana, is an administrative division in Bangladesh, functioning as a sub-unit of a district. It can be seen as an analogous to a county or a borough of Western countries. Rural upazilas are further administratively divided into union council areas (union parishads).

Bangladesh has 495 upazilas.[1][2][3] The upazilas are the second lowest tier of regional administration in Bangladesh. The administrative structure consists of divisions (8), districts (64), upazilas (495) and union parishads (UPs). This system of devolution was introduced by the former military ruler and president of Bangladesh, Lt-Gen Hossain Muhammad Ershad, in an attempt to strengthen local government.

Below UPs, villages (gram) and para exist, but these have no administrative power and elected members. The Local Government Ordinance of 1982 was amended a year later, redesignating and upgrading the existing thanas as upazilas.[4]

History

[edit]
Further information: Thanas of Bangladesh

Upazilas were formerly known as thana, which literally means police station. Despite the meaning, thanas functioned much as an administrative and geographic region, much as today's upazilas. In 1982 thanas were re-termed to as upazilas with provisions for semi-autonomous local governance. This system was reverted to the thana system in 1992. Later in 1999 geographic regions under administrations of thanas were converted into upazilas.[5] All administrative terms in this level were renamed from thana to upazila. For instance, thana nirbahi officer (lit. thana executive officer) was renamed upazila nirbahi officer (lit. upazila executive officer).

The word thana is now used to solely refer to police stations. Generally, there is one police station for each upazila, but larger administrative units may have more than one police station covering different regions. However, it was complicated again and currently, Upazilas which combinely form "Administrative Districts" are known as Thanas. For example: Panchlaish Thana, Double Mooring Thana under Chittagong district.

On 26 July 2021, Khandker Anwarul Islam announced the renaming of Dakshin Sunamganj Upazila to "Shantiganj Upazila" as well as the creation of three new upazilas; Eidgaon Upazila in Cox's Bazar District, Madhyanagar Upazila in Sunamganj District and Dasar Upazila in Madaripur District.[6]

Administration

[edit]

Upazila nirbahi officer

[edit]
Main article: Upazila Nirbahi Officer

Upazila nirbahi officer (UNO, or upazila executive officer; Bengali: উপজেলা নির্বাহী কর্মকর্তা) is a non-elected administrator in an upazila. UNOs are senior assistant secretary of Bangladesh Civil Service (Administration) Cadre. They act as executive officer of the upazila under the elected posts.

Upazila parishad

[edit]

Each upazila parishad (or council) has a chairman, a vice-chairman and a woman vice-chairman. All three are elected through direct popular election. Union parishad chairmen within the upazila are considered as the members of the porishod. The post of a woman vice-chairman was created to ensure at least one-third woman representation in the all elected posts of the local government.[7]

On 22 January 2010 the first election in 18 years of upazila porishod was held.[8]
