Adamdighi Upazila (Bengali: আদমদিঘী উপজেলা) is an upazila of Bogra District in the Division of Rajshahi, Bangladesh. Adamdighi Thana was established in 1821 and was converted into an upazila in 1983.[2] It is named after its administrative center, the town of Adamdighi. Local legend has it that its name came from a Muslim saint, Baba Adam, who visited and dug a dighi (tank) for water storage.[3]
