Tapi district

Tapi district is an administrative region in Gujarat that consists of seven administrative subdivisions, including Vyara, Songadh, and Valod Taluka, spread across about 3,139 square kilometers. The area is home to ten colleges, four schools, and eight banks that serve a population of around 807,000 people.

The district was established in 2007 as an independent administrative division, marking a significant reorganization of Gujarat's territorial structure. Vyara was designated as the administrative center of the newly created district.

The people live in around 149 villages where community gatherings and local decision-making shape daily life. These scattered settlements preserve regional customs and maintain close-knit social bonds across the area.

The region is well-equipped with basic services and offers several options for getting help from different locations. Emergency services are accessible through established networks, and banks and educational institutions are distributed across the main settlements throughout the area.

The Ukai Dam sits within the district and is one of the most important water management structures in the region. This facility controls water resources for irrigation and supply across the surrounding communities.
