Background of the district

Original picture of the land that is presently located in Laxmipur district was not the same. Most of the oceanic waves of the Bay of Bengal were drunk. Famous Chinese traveler Hiuen Tsang describes 'Kamalank' as the sea coast in his travelogue 'Siuati'. 'Kamalanka' is now the ancient name of Comilla and Tripura district of Comilla. Poet Kalidas called 'Suhmi Desh' 'Taliban Shyamkantha' in his 'Raghu Dynasty' poetry. The southern part of Comilla district and the northern part of Noakhali has been defined as 'Suhmi Desh'. Since ancient times, there are many tails in these areas. It is said that in the beginning of the first decade of the thirteenth century, Chandra Nath, the founder of the state of Bhulua, moved to Murshidabad and Chittagong (Chatgaon) boat on his way to the pilgrimage. It was definitely new jogas. Perhaps at that time, the smallest part of Raipur and Ramganj, which belonged to Tripura district, was an ancient land. At present, most of the land of Lakshmipur district is rising from river or sea pond gradually becoming a char or island. For this reason, the name of different areas of the district is associated with Chor, Dhi, Di, Dia. Areas that have been associated with Puranas or Ganjs are not the oldest. New settlers have added these. Just two hundred years ago, the Scottish traveler Dr witnessing the landscape of the region. Francis Buchanan wrote (2 March 1798) "Perhaps there were peas at times or maybe even the region was formed with the sand of the river. All the soils are soft, loosened; It is mixed with the Avaral sand particle and the soil layer is not formed. Moreover, the clay is not here. (5 March 1798) The cultivation that has been cultivated in the area between leaf hats (Charpata, Raipur) and Laxmipur, is not so rich in land between Laxmipur and Noakhali. The village is inhabited by many people and many areas are still lying in a natural state, in the vicinity of the trees. Compared to leaf hats, the ground is low and every pond is full of trees in the Sundarbans. "Describing the history of Noakhali historian Parry Mohan Sen (1940)," Laxmipur region was once part of the Bay of Bengal. Once upon a time that a lot of Urmimala emerged and created fear of man, the place was once occupied by the evacuation. At that place, many people are happily living happily. " According to the description of Kader (1991) it is seen that the vast land under the Feni river east of the Meghna river in the west, Tripura (Comilla) district, this vast land is under the sea. 'When the new land wakes up, people of different parts of the country are celebrating the cultivation of the country and the foreigners of Arab countries Builds settlements for promotion of trade and religion. Then the people of Lakshmipur survived by fighting against the meghna river and in adverse nature. One-time prosperous city Islabad was destroyed in the river Meghna, which has become more extinct in the river during the period, which is mentioned in the descriptions of the sea coastal and many famous and famous populations of the river Meghna and the port city of Ibn Battuta.


Today's Laksmipur District, which has been known to find any past existence in history, is known for its lack of history, the contemporary historians have commented on different occasions. This area is specially marked from the time of the formation of the 'Bholua' state of the world. At that time, the border of the Bhulua ranged from west to the Meghna river. As such Laxmipur district was under the control of Bhulua. Fakhruddin Mubarak Shah Buluya won the mid-seventies. Here he established the eastern capital and appointed a governor. A strong naval base was set up to protect the Meghna coastal borders. Then the affectionate Meghna river flows east-west over Farashganj and Bhabaniganj. Note that in Bhulua pargana, there was a village named Bhulua, which was about 15 miles southwest of Maizadi (Noakhali) city and 3 miles before Bhabaniganj (Laxmipur). There was a border between Bhuula village in present town Kasba and Teewarganj villages.


In the seventeenth century, the Mughals occupied the bhulua. In the navigable Mughal era, this city was known as 'Kasba Kasba', which was the main naval base of the Mughals in the east. In the middle of the seventeenth century, during the time of Emperor Shahjahan, Subedar Shaista Khan Sandwip of Bengal and the Portuguese Pirates of Chittagong and Arakan were dispatched from Lalbagh Durg in Dhaka during the campaign against the Arakan; In Chandpur, on the way to the Dakatia and Meghna rivers, they come to town and join the naval force. Thus, the southern and western boundaries of Lakshmipur district can be identified. The north and eastern boundaries were in force for the present time.
