Districts of India

A district (Zilā) is an administrative division of an Indian state or territory. Districts are further subdivided, in some cases into Sub-Divisions, and in others directly into tehsils or talukas. There are 671 districts in India now. There were a total of 640 districts in India in 2011. [1]

District officials include:

Each of these officials is aided by officers of the appropriate branches of state government.

Most districts have a distinct headquarters; Mumbai City district (MC) in Maharashtra (MH) is an example which, despite forming a district, does not have a clear headquarters, though it does have a District Collector.[2]

Naming

The majority of districts are named after their administrative center. Some are referred to by two names, a traditional one and one that uses the name of the town that is the headquarters. Since most of the districts are named after a town, the word "district" is appended to distinguish between the town and the district. Official websites very often use District with a capital D in this context.

Ambiguous names

The names of the 640 districts are mostly unique. There are some exceptions:

The following tables list the population details of various states. The columns include the hierarchical administrative subdivision codes,[4] the district name, district headquarters, 2011 census population,[5] area in square kilometres, and the population density per square kilometre.[5]
