In This post will read, about How many districts in Punjab? Let me share with you all the states of Punjab divided into 23 districts. Do you also know that earlier in 1996 when Punjab was created, there were only 11 districts and only 2 divisions in the state?

As I mentioned above now Punjab has 23 Districts. It means now Punjab has double districts as compared to the 1996 year. The most recent district added to this list is Malerkotla which was created from Sangrur district in June 2021.

If you are a student or teacher you might have read that district falls under Division and you are also searching about the smallest district & largest district of Punjab. We’ll cover all these topic so you don’t have to visit another web page let’s get started.

If you are not from Punjab and reading this article that means you have an interest in Punjab culture & its information. As I mentioned earlier there is a new district Malerkotla created by the Punjab government but do you know why it’s been created? The reason behind this is always locals and politicians demand district status for some cities.

A few decades before governments and politicians has discussed converting Change to some cities like Malerkotla, Batala, Khanna, etc into districts.  In the year 2021 chief minister Amarinder Singh has converted Malerkotla city into a district.
