Dharmapasha (Bengali: ধর্মপাশা, romanized: Dhormopasha, also spelled as Dharampasha or Dharamapasha, is an upazila of Sunamganj District in the Division of Sylhet, Bangladesh.

An English officer visited the Tanguar haor for tiger hunting during the zamindari of Maiyuk Chaudhuri.

The reason for the change of surname from Datta to Rai-Chaudhuri is explained by Malay Rai Chaudhuri to be due to the fact that one of his ancestors married a Das when arriving to Sukhair.

Mahamanikya Dutta's fourth descendant Pratap Rai-Chaudhuri embraced Islam and married a woman from an upper-class Muslim family in nearby Rajapur.

[5] In 1787, the Khasis of Laur rebelled against the British East India Company by plundering many of their parganas (including modern-day Dharmapasha Upazila's Bangsikunda, Ramdigha, and Selbaras) and killing up to 800 people.

The British collector of Sylhet, Robert Lindsay, sent troops to the area but before they could arrive, the Khasis had retreated back to their mountains.

[8] Narrative folk ballads, known as pala gan, about Tota Mia's heroism gained prominence.

In 1983, Dharmapasha Thana was upgraded to an upazila (sub-district) as part of the President of Bangladesh Hussain Muhammad Ershad's decentralisation programme.

Dharmapasha had a literacy rate (age 7 and over) of 29.83%, compared to the national average of 51.8%, and a sex ratio of 992 females per 1000 males.
