Netrokona District, Administrative district in Mymensingh Division, Bangladesh

Netrokona District spans 2,794 square kilometers across northern Bangladesh, featuring five major rivers and extensive agricultural lands along the Indian border.

The British colonial administration established Netrokona as a mahakuma in 1880, and the region gained full district status in 1984 under Bangladesh governance.

The district contains 3,146 mosques, 958 temples, 183 churches, and 8 Buddhist temples, reflecting the religious diversity of its 2.3 million inhabitants.

The Local Government Engineering Department office coordinates infrastructure projects throughout the district, with headquarters accessible via phone number 0951-61547.

The southeastern section of Netrokona transforms into a haor during monsoon season, creating temporary wetlands that support extensive fishing activities.
