Ghaziabad, Major industrial city in Uttar Pradesh, India

Located 214 meters above sea level, Ghaziabad extends along the Hindon River banks with five municipal zones covering 100 administrative wards.

Founded in 1740 by Mughal governor Ghazi-ud-din, the settlement evolved from Ghaziuddinnagar into a separate district from Meerut in 1976.

The population of over 1.7 million residents maintains various religious celebrations throughout the year, with Hindi and Urdu as primary languages.

The Hindon Airport, Delhi Metro connections, and Delhi-Meerut Expressway provide transportation links across the National Capital Region.

The Scientific Society established during Mughal rule marked the beginning of formal education systems in northern India through this location.
