Baran district, Administrative district in Rajasthan, India

The district spans across varied terrains with three major rivers - Kalisindh, Parvati, and Parban - flowing through its geographical boundaries at 262 meters elevation.

The district administration came into existence on April 10, 1991, when authorities separated it from Kota district to form an independent administrative division.

Languages spoken in the district include Hadoti at seventy percent of the population, Hindi at twenty-five percent, and Urdu at two percent.

National Highway 76 connects the district with neighboring regions, while Baran railway station on the Kota-Bina section provides transportation to major cities.

The tenth-century Bhand Deva Temple, constructed in Khajuraho architectural style, stands near a meteorite impact crater forty kilometers from Baran city.
