Rupnagar district, Administrative district in Punjab, India.
The district spreads across 1,440 square kilometers with varied landscapes including rivers, agricultural fields, and urban developments between latitudes 30°-32' and 31°-24' north.
Archaeological excavations in Rupnagar have uncovered remains from multiple periods, starting with the Indus Valley Civilization through successive historical periods.
The district maintains traditional Punjabi heritage through regular celebrations, folk music performances, and seasonal agricultural festivities across its 617 villages.
Four administrative divisions called Tehsils - Rupnagar, Anandpur Sahib, Chamkaur Sahib, and Nangal - manage local governance and public services.
The Bhakra Dam in Nangal, situated at the district boundary with Himachal Pradesh, generates substantial hydroelectric power for northern India.
