Tinsukia district

Tinsukia district spans 3,790 square kilometers in northeastern Assam, featuring valleys, hills, rivers, and extensive tea gardens across its terrain.

The district emerged from the Dibrugarh district in 1989, following centuries of governance under the Sutiya kingdom and subsequent Ahom administration.

Multiple ethnic groups maintain their traditions through festivals, with Bihu celebrations marking seasonal changes through dance performances and community gatherings.

The district connects to major cities via national highways and railway networks, with Dibrugarh Airport located 40 kilometers from Tinsukia town.

Dibru-Saikhowa National Park contains rare plant species and wildlife, including white-winged wood ducks, water buffaloes, and hoolock gibbons.
