Devipatan division, Administrative division in Uttar Pradesh, India.
Devipatan division is an administrative region in the northern part of Uttar Pradesh comprising four districts under a single administration. Gonda serves as the main administrative center connecting these districts together.
The division was established in 1997 as part of administrative reorganization in the state. This restructuring built upon earlier systems of regional governance that had shaped northern India for centuries.
The four districts here each maintain their own traditions and ways of life that shape how communities gather and celebrate together. You can see these differences in the villages, temples, and local festivals throughout the region.
The region has good rail and road connections linking all four districts to major cities in the state. These transportation routes make it easy to travel between the different areas and reach neighboring regions.
The name comes from a local deity worshipped in the region, showing how religious beliefs have shaped the administrative structure. This connection between governance and local faith systems reflects how many administrative areas across India were named.
