Understanding India's administrative structure

MyLocalPedia organises Indian locations as a navigable directory rather than a single flat list. The usual path is:

India → State / Union Territory → District → Sub-District / Tehsil → Block → Gram Panchayat → Village

States and Union Territories are the top-level units under India. Each is divided into districts. Below the district, Sub-Districts (also known as tehsils, talukas or mandals in some states) generally reflect revenue administration, while Blocks generally follow rural development and Panchayati Raj. Gram Panchayats group villages for local self-government, and village pages connect to nearby public services where those records are listed.

Administrative terminology is not identical everywhere. MyLocalPedia preserves the labels present in the source data so visitors can move from a state page into districts, local bodies, villages, PIN codes, schools, colleges and Government Health Centres without losing the place hierarchy.

How MyLocalPedia organises India

  • States and Union Territories

    Start here to open any of the 36 listed regions and continue into their districts.

  • Districts and Sub-Districts

    District pages expose Sub-District and Block views so revenue and rural-development structures stay distinct.

  • Blocks and Gram Panchayats

    Use these pages to move from development blocks into Gram Panchayats and the villages grouped under them.

  • Villages and local services

    Village pages link outward to PIN codes, schools, colleges and Government Health Centres when those directories contain matching records.

India location directory FAQ

Short answers about how the directory works and what the listed counts mean.

Pages follow the administrative hierarchy from India to State or Union Territory, then District, Sub-District or Block, Gram Panchayat and Village. Related directories also connect locations with PIN codes, schools, colleges and Government Health Centres where those records are listed.

States and union territories use different local terms for similar units. A Sub-District may be called a tehsil, taluka or mandal, while Blocks are generally rural-development or Panchayati Raj units. MyLocalPedia keeps both views where the dataset provides them.

No. Figures such as districts and villages on this page reflect records currently listed in the MyLocalPedia directory. Official boundaries and counts can change, and coverage may be incomplete for some areas or facility types.

About this data

Administrative counts on this page describe records currently listed in MyLocalPedia. They do not claim to be the definitive live official total for every boundary or settlement in India.
