Upgrading Charjabber
Charjabber, a thana, is a combination of 7 unions and 49 mouzas of coastal areas of Noakhali district. It was set up on 13 March , 2001. Inhabitants of the thana have long been demanding that it be upgraded to an upazila. This thana has an area of 386.46 square kilometres and there are many institutions like the thana health complex, two degree colleges, one senior madrasah , 16 secondary schools, 15 junior schools, seven Dakhil madrasahs and several primary schools . The area has been brought under electrification.
The leaders of the country promised many times in the past that Charjabber would be upgraded to a an upazila. A decision was also taken in this regard recently. But we do not understand why it is not being implemented.
I would request the authorities concerned to look into the matter.
