Kholeya Union(Union)

Khaleya Union is a settlement that runs through the heart of Rangpur Sadar Upazila.

This silt-laden area in the basin of the Teesta and Ghaghat rivers is historically a confluence of agriculture and culture.

Although geographically located on the outskirts of Rangpur city, it possesses a distinct identity of its own.

Its vast crop fields and rural dirt paths are a reflection of a peaceful and serene life.

To the locals, this region is known for its fertile land, where there is a rich tradition of cultivating tobacco and vegetables alongside golden paddy.

Basmunia Hat, also known as Khaleya Hat, serves as the heart of Khaleya Union, where the pulse of life resonates on specific days of the week.

The Khaleya Ganjipur High School and various religious institutions located here serve as beacons of education and values for the people of the area.

In a historical context, this region is imbued with memories of the Liberation War, with many stories of the local people's bravery scattered throughout.

Furthermore, the contributions of various social and political figures among the region's notable sons have enriched the union.

Over time, although Khaleya has received the touch of modernity, its original, authentic rural charm remains untarnished, making this township a unique and delightful destination for tourists and travelers alike.
