Korba district

Korba is an administrative district in Chhattisgarh located in central India between plains and plateaus. The territory includes several towns and settlements that serve as centers for local commerce and governance.

The area was once known by another name and has seen multiple rulers throughout its past. In the 1800s it became part of a larger administrative system that shaped its modern boundaries.

The local communities perform traditional dances like Panthi Dance during festivals and celebrations. These performances remain an active part of how people mark special occasions and gather together.

The district has public facilities including schools and police stations spread across different areas. Main towns offer better infrastructure and transport connections than smaller settlements.

The district is a major power producer with large thermal plants that supply electricity to wider regions. These facilities are significant employers and shape the economic life of the area.
