Feni (Bengali: ফেনী) is a small southern district of Bangladesh, bordering (clockwise from the
north) Tripura in India, Chittagong district, the Bay of Bengal, Noakhali district and
Comilla district. It comprises six sub-districts ("Upazilas"): Feni Sadar, Chhagalnaiya,
Porshuram, Fulgazi (variant of Phool Ghazi), Daganbhuiyan and Sonagazi.
Before becoming a full-fledged district in 1984, it was part of the Noakhali district. Feni
has a moderate climate, and a rich history dating back almost 3000 years. Except
agriculture, maximum people of Feni resides in Dhaka City and Chittagong City, engaged in
Job and Business.It has a large contingent of its population residing in the Middle East and
other parts of the world. Two years back, a Feni native, Abul Kashem, was in the news when
he was captured by Iraqi insurgents while driving a truck for a Kuwaiti company. He was
subsequently released without any harm.[citation needed]
