Morneya Union(Union)

Morneya Union has been established along the banks of the Teesta River, which flows through the heart of Gangachara Upazila in Rangpur.

Geographically situated in a unique location, this region is a curious blend of Teesta’s erosion and silt-laden shoals.

Its vast crop fields and horizon-stretching green meadows are like a secluded canvas of nature.

The branches of the Teesta and its small canals have given this union a distinct appearance.

Legend has it that the area was once locally renowned for its prosperous agriculture and fisheries.

Although the communication system has improved somewhat due to the touch of development, the turbulent form of the Teesta during the monsoon and the struggle for survival of the people living in the shoals remain an integral part of its geographical character.

At the heart of Morneya Union are several ancient and modern structures, which serve as the focal point of the locals' daily lives.

The local markets are essentially the lifeblood of the rural economy.

Among the places of interest, the banks of the Teesta River and the picturesque scenery of the shoals that emerge during the monsoon captivate tourists.

To the locals, this union is known for its traditional culture and secular spirit.

Recently, this region has become the center of discussions regarding the Teesta Master Plan and various government initiatives for river management, which have awakened new dreams in the minds of the local people.

The life stories of countless ordinary people are intertwined with the soil and inhabitants of the Morneya region, who are constantly moving forward towards a promising future by overcoming adversity.
