At present,
Robirbazar is very advanced in terms of wealth and education. But the people of this area are lagging behind in the health sector. There is still no good quality government or private hospital in Robirbazar. Although few MBBS doctors sit in private chambers, it is beyond the reach of common people. Low-income people are deprived of quality treatment due to non-availability of good quality government hospitals and high consultation fees in private chambers. Residents of Robirbazar demand that a good quality hospital be built here to provide good treatment for common people
The conscious people of the area think that if Robirbazar is converted into an upazila, the common people of this area will be saved from various aspects of deprivation. This area will progress from backward position including development of health sector.
