Naogaon subdivision, under Rajshahi zila, was established in 1877 and was turned into a zila in 1984.

The upazilas are NAOGAON SADAR, ATRAI, BADALGACHHI, DHAMOIRHAT, MANDA, MAHADEBPUR, NIAMATPUR, Patnitala Upazila, PORSHA, RANINAGAR and SAPAHAR. Background, Geographic Area and Location: Naogaon was one of the sub-divisions of former Rajshahi zila. It was upgraded to zila on the 1st March, 1984. It is believed that the present zila headquarters initially developed in a mauza comprising nine (meaning ‘Nao’ in Bengali) villages (meaning ‘Gaon’ in Bengali). The zila might have derived its name as Naogaon from the words ‘Nao’ and ‘Gaon’. The zila is bounded on the north by India, on the east by Joypurhat and Bogra zilas, on the south by Natore and Rajshahi zilas and on the west by Nawabganj and India. The total area of the zila is 3435.65 sq.km. (1326.00 sq.miles) of which 9.09 sq.km. (3.51) sq. miles) is riverine and 19.45 sq.km (7.51 sq. miles) is under forest. The zila lies between 24° 32′ and 25° 13′ north latitudes and between 28° 23′ and 89° 10′ east longitudes.
