Subdivisions

A district (zila) is an administrative division of an Indian state or territory. In some cases, districts are further subdivided into sub-divisions, and in others directly into tehsils or talukas. As of August 2022, there are a total of 766 districts, up from the 640 in the 2011 Census of India and the 593 recorded in the 2001 Census of India.[1]

District officials include:

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

Most districts have a distinct headquarters; but the districts of Mumbai City, in Maharashtra,[5] Hyderabad in Telangana and Chennai, in Tamil Nadu, are examples where there are no distinct district headquarters, although there are district collectors.

Naming

The majority of districts are named after their administrative centre. 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.

Similar names

Districts sharing their name with another district in India

Districts sharing their name with a district in a neighbouring country in South Asia

Districts sharing names with those outside of South Asia entirely

Districts having a name different from their headquarters
