Chauddagram Upazila: History
From this region, a lot of revenue was collected in the King's treasury. The generous King also did a lot of good deeds in this area. The large reservoirs and dig of Chauddagram bear their identity. At that time, different geographical regions were called Parganas for the purpose of rent collection. Upazila was also a pargana headquarter at Chauddagram. As this pargana was established with fourteen villages, it was named Chauddagram. Later, when the thana was established in 1905, the whole thana was renamed Chauddagram after the name of the center.
