Narsingdi District, Administrative district in Dhaka Division, Bangladesh

Located 50 kilometers northeast of Dhaka, Narsingdi District spans 1140 square kilometers across six sub-districts bordered by Kishoreganj and Brahmanbaria regions.

The district contains the Wari-Bateshwar archaeological site from the early 2nd millennium BCE, representing one of the earliest urban settlements in South Asia.

The district holds the largest textile market of Bangladesh at Madhabdi, known as Shekherchaur, maintaining its traditional connection to fabric production.

The district consists of three municipalities, 27 wards, 55 mahallas, 69 union councils, and 1060 villages with a population exceeding 2.5 million people.

The Narsingdi gas field, discovered in 1990, sits adjacent to the Dhaka-Sylhet highway in Shibpur subdistrict, contributing to the region's industrial development.
