Karur district, Administrative district in Tamil Nadu, India

The district stretches across 2,904 square kilometers bordered by Namakkal, Dindigul, Tiruchirappalli, and Erode regions in the central part of Tamil Nadu.

The district emerged on July 25, 1996, through separation from Tiruchirappalli district, following its earlier transfer from Coimbatore district in 1910.

The region contains 203 revenue villages and 157 panchayats, maintaining traditional governance structures while incorporating modern administrative systems.

The district operates through eight administrative subdivisions including Karur, Dandoni, Aravakurichi, K.Paramathi, Kulithalai, Krishnarayapuram, Kadavur, and Thogamalai.

Three rivers - Amaravathi, Kaveri, and Noyyal - flow through the district, supporting agricultural activities and industrial development in textiles and bus manufacturing.
