Background of the upazila

Jibannagar is an upazila bordering India. The story of Nadia is known from page 272. During 180-65, a terrible robber named Jiban Khan took up residence in this area, when the area was full of deep forests and tiger habitat. Next to it was the river Bhairab, which is now dead. After the British occupied India in 173, all these robbers were seen in Robinhood style. Jiban Khan named the area Jibannagar after the robber who considered him a great man like Ribbonhood. During the Pakistan period Jibannagar was upgraded as a thana in 1973 and during the Bangladesh period as an upazila in 1973.
