Jammu division, Administrative division in Jammu and Kashmir, India.

Jammu division spans across ten districts, featuring mountainous terrain with the Pir Panjal Range and parts of the Great Himalayas in eastern districts.

The division emerged as an administrative entity during the Dogra dynasty rule in the 19th century, when Maharaja Gulab Singh consolidated regional territories.

The division contains multiple religious sites including temples, mosques, and gurdwaras, reflecting the presence of Hindu, Muslim, and Sikh populations.

The administrative center operates from Jammu city during winter months, coordinating government services across all ten districts of the division.

The Chenab River flows through multiple districts of the division, creating deep valleys and supporting agricultural activities in the surrounding regions.
