Sonipat district, Administrative division in Haryana, India

The Sonipat district occupies 2,260 square kilometers in northern India, bordered by Delhi, Panipat, Rohtak, Jind, Jhajjar, and Baghpat districts.

The district contains 343 villages across four administrative subdivisions: Sonipat, Kharkhauda, Gohana, and Gannaur, each managing local governance responsibilities.

Educational institutions like O.P. Jindal Global University and Deenbandhu Chhotu Ram University of Science and Technology establish the district as a center of learning.
