  • Firozpur is one of the nineteen districts and a famous historic town in the state of Punjab in North-West India. It comprises an area of 11,142 sq km. The surface is level, with the exception of a few sand-hills in the south and south-east. The country consists of two distinct tracts that are liable to annual fertilizing inundations from the Sutlej, the only river, which runs along the north-western boundary. The principal crops are wheat, barley, millet, gram, pulses, oil seeds, cotton, tobacco, &c. The manufactures are of the humblest kind, consisting chiefly of cotton and wool-weaving and are confined entirely to the supply of local wants. The other important towns and sea of commerce are Zira, Fazilka,Abohar, Dharmkot, Mallanwalla and Jalalabad. Geographically it is the biggest district of Punjab. in Owing principally to the dryness of its climate (apart from annual rains in September and October), Firozpur has the reputation of being an exceptionally healthy district. It has second most rice mills in punjab and used to be big trade centre before partition of India and Pakistan. Firozpur city is the Capital of this District. The Firozpur Cantonment adjoining Firozpur city combines with the city to give the district its most urban hub.
