Durg district, Administrative district in Chhattisgarh, India

The Durg district extends over 2,238 square kilometers in eastern India, containing both urban centers and agricultural lands along the Shivnath River.

The district name originates from a medieval fort that served as headquarters for Kalachuri kings until Maratha forces from Nagpur captured it in 1741.

The district features the Ganga Maiyaat Jhalmala temple and Uwasaggaharam Parshwa Teerth at Nagpura, drawing visitors for religious ceremonies throughout the year.

The district administration provides online services through their website, where residents can access documentation, permits, and governmental resources for local matters.

The Bhilai Steel Plant within the district ranks among India's largest steel manufacturing facilities, contributing substantially to the national industrial output.
