Tharparkar District, Administrative district in Sindh province, Pakistan.

Tharparkar District encompasses a vast desert region with Mithi as its capital, stretching across 450 kilometers east of Karachi at 28 meters elevation.

The region transformed from Eastern Sindh Frontier District in 1860 to Thar and Parkar District in 1901, receiving its current administrative status after 1947.

The district maintains the largest Hindu population in Pakistan, where Hindu and Muslim communities share celebrations and traditional practices throughout the year.

Agriculture and livestock farming constitute the primary economic activities, with 94 percent of households depending on animal husbandry for their livelihood.

The district contains substantial coal reserves estimated at 175 billion tonnes, leading to new mining developments under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor initiative.
