UP me kitne jile hai: 75 districts, 18 mandal aur unke naam

UP me kitne jile hai, aaj ki sahi ginti kya hai?

The answer to up me kitne jile hai today is 75 districts. They are grouped into 18 mandal (divisions). This count has held since 2011, when Hapur, Shamli and Sambhal were added. A temporary district for the 2025 Kumbh came and went, and a proposed 76th district had not been notified by October 2026.

The one-line answer for students

Write it as: Uttar Pradesh has 75 districts in 18 divisions, with Lucknow as the capital and Prayagraj as the seat of the Allahabad High Court. That line covers the count, the next level up and the two cities examiners most often ask about.

Why you still see other numbers

Old textbooks, short videos and quiz apps were written at different times. Some show 70, 71 or 72 districts from before 2011; others show 76 because of the 2024 Kumbh district or the Kalyan Singh Nagar announcement. Check the date of whatever you are reading.

Uttar Pradesh mein kitne jile hain aur kitne mandal?

Uttar Pradesh mein kitne jile hain, and how many mandal sit above them? The state has 75 jile under 18 mandal. A mandal is a group of three to six neighbouring districts under one Commissioner. Kanpur, Lucknow and Meerut mandal are the largest, with six districts each.

A district (jila) is run by the District Magistrate, also called the Collector. A division (mandal) is run by a Divisional Commissioner, who supervises the District Magistrates of that group and hears revenue appeals. So the two numbers answer different questions: 75 is the district count, 18 is the division count.

Uttar Pradesh mein kul kitne jile hain: 75 ya 76?

Uttar Pradesh mein kul kitne jile hain is a fair question, because 76 has appeared in the news twice. The permanent, working count is still 75. One 76th district was temporary by design, and the other was only a proposal at the time of writing.

The Maha Kumbh Mela district

On 2 December 2024 the state declared the Maha Kumbh area of Prayagraj a temporary new district. It covered 67 villages from four tehsils, and the Mela officer held district-level powers for the 13 January to 26 February 2025 event. Afterwards the area went back to Prayagraj district.

The proposed Kalyan Singh Nagar

In October 2025 reports said the government had started work on a district named after former Chief Minister Kalyan Singh, built from Atrauli and Gangiri tehsils of Aligarh and Dibai of Bulandshahr. We found no final notification by October 2026, so it is not counted here.

75 jilon ke naam kya hain?

Here are all 75 jilon ke naam in alphabetical order, with the headquarters town and the mandal each one belongs to. Where the headquarters has a different name from the district, such as Akbarpur for Ambedkar Nagar, the table shows it. Use it as the master list for the rest of this page.

Up mein total kitne jile hain, aur ye ginti kaise badhi?

Up ke jile kaise bante hain?

New up ke jile are created by the state government, not by the Centre. The revenue department collects proposals from the District Magistrates concerned, decides which tehsils move, and then issues a notification. Only after that notification does the new district count.

Who decides

The Revenue Council and the state Cabinet handle the proposal. The Kalyan Singh Nagar plan, for example, began with the revenue council asking the Aligarh and Bulandshahr District Magistrates for proposals. Announcements and speeches alone do not change the count.

What follows a notification

A new district needs a District Magistrate, a police chief, courts, treasury and, for vehicle owners, a transport office with its own code. Old records, including vehicle registrations, usually stay valid; only new work moves to the new offices.

Up ke 75 jilon ke naam me kaun se naam badle gaye?

Several of the up ke 75 jilon ke naam you see today are new names for existing districts. Renaming does not change the count, but it confuses older lists. These are the changes most often asked about.

Up me kitne jile h, Uttarakhand banne ke baad?

Up me kitne jile h after Uttarakhand? Uttarakhand was carved out on 9 November 2000 and took the hill districts with it; it has 13 districts today. Everything counted on this page is what remained in Uttar Pradesh plus the districts created since.

That split is also why vehicle codes for UP start at UP 11. The codes UP 01 to UP 10 belonged to the hill districts and went out of use when those areas got the UK series. If an old document shows a code below UP 11, it was issued before November 2000.

Jila, mandal, tehsil aur block me kya fark hai?

The four words describe different layers. A mandal groups districts; a jila is the main unit of administration; a tehsil is a revenue sub-division of a district; a block is a development unit for rural schemes. Uttar Pradesh has 18 mandal and 75 jile, with tehsils and blocks below them.

Tehsil

A tehsil is headed by a Sub-Divisional Magistrate and a Tehsildar. It keeps land records, issues income, caste and residence certificates, and collects land revenue. Bigger districts have more tehsils. We did not find a current, reliable total for the whole state, so check the district website.

Block and gram panchayat

A development block groups gram panchayats for rural schemes. Villages, panchayats and their reserved seats are covered in our UP village name guide, which explains how to find a village in its block and district.

Up ka area kitna hai?

Up ka area kitna hai? Most references give about 2,40,928 sq km, which makes Uttar Pradesh the fourth largest state by area after Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. A few sources print 2,43,286 sq km, so small differences in quiz books are normal.

Add up the district areas in our table and you get roughly the same total, with a gap of under one per cent because the district figures are rounded. Lakhimpur Kheri alone is about twice the size of Goa, while Hapur is less than a tenth of Lakhimpur Kheri.

Up kitna bada hai, aabadi ke hisaab se?

Up kitna bada hai in terms of people? At the 2011 Census Uttar Pradesh had 19,98,12,341 people, about 20 crore, the most of any Indian state. No later census had been published by October 2026, so newer figures are only estimates.

Population is spread unevenly. Nine districts had more than 44 lakh people in 2011, led by Prayagraj, Azamgarh, Lucknow and Kanpur Nagar. The Bundelkhand districts of Mahoba, Chitrakoot and Hamirpur each had about 11 lakh or fewer, despite their large areas.

Up ka ek jila kaun sa sabse bada aur kaun sa sabse chhota hai?

If a quiz asks you to name up ka ek jila that is the largest, the answer is Lakhimpur Kheri by area. The smallest by area is Hapur. By population the largest is Prayagraj and the smallest is Mahoba. The table pulls these records together.

Up me kitne rajya hai?

Up me kitne rajya hai has a simple answer: none. Uttar Pradesh is itself one of India’s 28 states. A state is divided into districts, not into smaller states. The question usually comes from mixing up rajya (state), mandal (division) and jila (district).

If you meant how many states India has, the answer is 28 states and 8 union territories. If you meant how many divisions UP has, it is 18 mandal. If you meant districts, it is 75.

Uttar Pradesh mein kul kitne rajya hain jinse seema lagti hai?

The question uttar pradesh mein kul kitne rajya hain often means how many states touch UP. The answer is eight states and one union territory: Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Bihar, plus Delhi. Nepal lies to the north.

That makes Uttar Pradesh one of the states with the most neighbours. Vehicles cross these borders every day; if you move your vehicle to UP from another state for good, the registration rules and road tax apply, explained in our UP road tax guide.

Up ke kitne jile hai jo Nepal se lagte hain?

Up ke kitne jile hai on the Nepal border? Seven: Pilibhit, Lakhimpur Kheri, Bahraich, Shravasti, Balrampur, Siddharthnagar and Maharajganj. The state government named these same seven when it raised a border alert in September 2025. The border is guarded by the Sashastra Seema Bal.

Indian vehicles crossing into Nepal need Nepalese entry permits at the border point; carry the RC, insurance, PUC and driving licence. Requirements are set by Nepal and change, so confirm them at the border customs office before you travel.

Pradesh mein kitne jile hain, doosre rajyon se tulna

If you are comparing how many districts each pradesh has, Uttar Pradesh is first with 75. Madhya Pradesh is next with 55, then Rajasthan with 41. The figures below are from a December 2025 list and change whenever a state adds districts.

Up me kitne district hai aur kitne RTO code?

Up me kitne district hai and how many vehicle codes go with them? The 75 districts use codes from UP 11 to UP 96, one main code per district. Some numbers in that range are unused, and some big cities have extra offices, so the code count and the district count are close but not identical.

Gaps in the number range

Numbers such as UP 18, UP 28, UP 29, UP 39, UP 48, UP 49, UP 59, UP 68, UP 69, UP 88 and UP 89 do not appear in the standard district table. Commercial lists sometimes show UP 18 for Greater Noida; treat that as unconfirmed.

Finding the code for your district

The district entries above give each main code. The full list with offices, series letters and sub-offices is on our UP RTO code page.

Up mein kitne district hai aur vehicle number me jila kaise dikhta hai?

The district appears as the two digits after UP on the plate. In UP 32 AB 1234, “32” is Lucknow; in UP 78, it is Kanpur Nagar. So up mein kitne district hai matters to vehicle owners: your address decides which district office registers your vehicle and which code you get.

Searching a vehicle by its code

Enter the full number on Vahan citizen services or the mParivahan app to see the registering office, model and validity dates. State-specific services, such as tax payment and office lists, are explained in our UP Parivahan guide. Licence work for the district goes through Sarathi; see UP DL online.

Uttar pradesh me kitne jile hai, exam me kya likhein?

When an exam asks uttar pradesh me kitne jile hai, write 75 districts in 18 divisions, using current names. If the paper refers to an earlier date, answer for that date: before 2011 the count was lower. Do not count the temporary Kumbh district or a proposed district.

Common follow-up questions are the largest district (Lakhimpur Kheri), the smallest (Hapur), the most populous (Prayagraj), the capital (Lucknow), the number of Lok Sabha seats (80) and the number of Vidhan Sabha seats (403). The state’s foundation day, UP Diwas, is 24 January, marking the 1950 change of name from United Provinces.

Up mai kitne jile hai, ye yaad kaise karein?

Up mai kitne jile hai is easier to remember mandal by mandal than as one list of 75. Learn the 18 mandal first, then the three to six districts under each. Going west to east, the order Saharanpur, Meerut, Moradabad, Bareilly, Lucknow, Ayodhya, Devipatan, Basti, Gorakhpur works well.

Then take the southern belt: Agra, Aligarh, Kanpur, Prayagraj, Varanasi, Azamgarh and Vindhyachal, and finish with Bundelkhand’s Jhansi and Chitrakoot. A district map helps; our UP district map page shows where each district sits.

Up me kul kitne jile hai, official list kahan dekhein?

For an authoritative answer to up me kul kitne jile hai, use the Local Government Directory run by the Ministry of Panchayati Raj, or the Uttar Pradesh government portal. Each district also has its own NIC website, usually at districtname.nic.in.

These official sites can be slow from outside India, which is one reason this page used published secondary sources and notes where they disagree. If a new district is notified after October 2026, the official list will change first; we will update this page when we can confirm it. For other vehicle and RC services, start from our Vahan and vehicle services hub.
