Dhobaura Upazila
Dhobaura ( bn, ধোবাউড়া ) is an upazila of the Mymensingh District in Bangladesh. History Since ancient times, Dhobaura has been inhabited by the Garo people. During the Mughal period, a mosque was built in the village of Darsha which is now in ruins. Dhobaura was formerly known as Jikkowa Bazar. In the mid 18th-century, the area was home to Babu Gauriballabh Sen, a prominent agriculturalist.

One day, Sita went missing and could not be found. Her body was found a few days later, floating in the pond.

The village then came to be known as Dhobaura, meaning ''floating dhoba'' in the Bengali language. A mouza centred in Dhobaura was later established and not long after it became a union parishad. ...
