Assam Districts

Discover Assam: Land of the Brahmaputra and Diverse Districts

Nestled between the Himalayan foothills and the rolling Meghalaya plateau, Assam thrives on the banks of the mighty Brahmaputra. Explore how each district contributes to the state's culture, governance, and growth.

Assam is administratively divided into 35 districts, each led by a Deputy Commissioner who also serves as District Magistrate and Collector. These officers coordinate with police and development teams to keep the administrative fabric strong and citizen services responsive.

From the expansive Karbi Anglong—spanning 10,434 sq. km—to historic Sonitpur along the Brahmaputra valley, every district combines heritage with modern aspirations. Use the cards below to drill into headquarters, demographics, and quick facts for each region.
