Rajanpur

About Rajanpur District

Rajanpur lies in southern Punjab between the Indus River and the Sulaiman mountain landscape. The district administration describes its territory as lying west of the Indus, with the Sulaiman Range defining the landscape to the west. Rajanpur became a separate district on 1 July 1982, having previously formed part of Dera Ghazi Khan District.

Understanding the landscape

The district’s geography account distinguishes the Pachad foothill belt, canal- and well-irrigated land, riverine areas and mountains. It describes hill-torrent water as an important part of irrigation in the Sulaiman valleys. These are descriptions of the district’s physical setting, not a current flood or road-condition report.
