Hojai district, Administrative district in Central Assam, India

The district spans across fertile plains between the Kapili and Jamuna rivers, containing agricultural lands, tea plantations, and residential settlements.

The region formed part of the Davaka kingdom until the 6th century CE, when the Barahi Pala dynasty established control over the Kapili-Jamuna valley.

The district takes its name from the Dimasa community's priestly class, known as Hojai, and maintains strong connections to indigenous traditions.

Hojai district contains three assembly constituencies and maintains its administrative headquarters at Sankardev Nagar, 8 kilometers from Hojai town.

The district population communicates in four primary languages: Bengali, Assamese, Hindi, and Meitei, reflecting its demographic composition.
