About the District
Sagar is an administrative district of Madhya Pradesh with its headquarters at Sagar town. The district is located in the north central region of Madhya Pradesh. It was spelled as Saugar during the British period as the district
has a truly central location in the country. The origin of the name
comes from the Hindi word Sagar which means sea. As the town is
situated around a large lake, the name Sagar is justified. Sagar was
founded by Udan Singh in 1660 and was constituted a municipality in
1867.
The district is bounded on the north by Jhansi of Uttar Pradesh, on the south by the district of Narsinghpur and Raisen, on the west by the district of Vidisha, and on the east by the district of Damoh.. On the north-east and north-west, the district borders Chhattarpur and Guna districts, respectively.
Sagar is the sixteenth largest district in size in the State, and the third largest in the Jabalpur revenue division. The district has sizeable population of tribals and harijans.
