Kabirhat Upazila

Kabirhat (Bengali: কবিরহাট, romanized: Kobirhat) is an upazila of the Noakhali District, located in Bangladesh's Chittagong Division.

It is said that the independent Sultan Fakhruddin Mubarak Shah, the first Muslim to conquer Chittagong, was born in Kabirhat.

In circa 1895, a prominent businessman of Ward 2 by the name of Kabir Patwari opened a shop near his house yard.

A haat bazaar was eventually established and every Friday and Tuesday, the people of the area start coming there for their daily necessities.

During the Bangladesh Liberation War of 1971, the local Razakars established a camp at the Kabirhat High School.

The Pakistan Army and the Razakars plundered Company Hat and set fire to houses in the village of Alipur in Ghoshbagh on 27 September.

Kabirhat had a literacy rate (age 7 and over) of 48.99%, compared to the national average of 51.8%, and a sex ratio of 1127 females per 1000 males.
