Gorakhpur division, Administrative division in eastern Uttar Pradesh, India.
The Gorakhpur division encompasses four districts - Gorakhpur, Deoria, Kushinagar, and Maharajganj - covering an extensive area of northern Uttar Pradesh.
The British East India Company established control over this region in 1801 when it was transferred from the Nawab of Awadh's jurisdiction.
Gorakhpur division maintains strong connections with Hindu traditions through institutions like Gita Press, which publishes religious texts since 1926.
The division's headquarters in Gorakhpur city lies 272 kilometers east of Lucknow, functioning as a central point for administrative operations.
The division's location near Nepal's border positions it as a strategic area for cross-border trade and cultural exchange between the two nations.
