At a Glance: Mahishmara Union Parishad


 

Greater Aushnara Union was divided in 2015, leading to the formation of Mahishmara and Kuraliya unions. The administrative journey of the current Mahishmara Union began after the Union Parishad elections in 2017.

 

Currently, Mahishmara Union is an important administrative unit under Madhupur Upazila in Tangail District, Bangladesh. It is one of the unions in Madhupur Upazila under the Dhaka Division, located to the east of Madhupur Upazila. To the north lies Aushnara Union, to the south is Lakshminder Union, to the east is Naungaon Union, and to the west is Kuraliya Union.

 

Carrying the testimony of the times, Mahishmara Union is a historical area established under the influence of the Banshigah for Madhupur Upazila. Over the years, Mahishmara Union has maintained its distinctiveness in education, culture, religious events, sports, along with the indigenous populations such as Garo, Koch, and the Hindu community.
