Palghar district, Administrative district in Konkan division, Maharashtra, India
The district spans from Dahanu in the north to Naigaon in the south, featuring coastal areas, hills, and urban regions along the Arabian Sea.
Maharashtra established Palghar as its 36th district in August 2014 by separating specific territories from the existing Thane district administration.
The region includes settlements of Konkni, Warli, Koli, and Agri communities, with Marathi serving as the primary language across eight administrative talukas.
The Western Railway network connects major settlements within the district, providing transportation links between Vasai, Palghar, and Dahanu population centers.
The district houses India's first atomic power station at Tarapur while maintaining substantial agricultural production in its mountainous territories.
