Dewas district, Administrative district in Ujjain division, India
Dewas district extends across 7,020 square kilometers on the Malwa plateau, encompassing eight tehsils including Sonkatch, Bagli, and Kannod in Madhya Pradesh.
The district emerged from two separate Maratha princely states, Dewas Junior and Dewas Senior, established by brothers Jivaji Rao and Tukaji Rao in the 1700s.
The district maintains religious festivals throughout the year, with the Pushpgiri Tirth temple complex in Sonkatch drawing numerous spiritual gatherings.
The district connects to major cities through an extensive network of roads and railways, with the town of Dewas serving as its administrative center.
The Kavadia Hills within the district feature unusual basalt columns formed through ancient volcanic activity, creating distinct geological formations.
