ABOUT DISTRICT

District Khairagarh-Chhuikhadan-Gandai was separated from the erstwhile Rajnandgaon district and came into existence as the 31st district on 03 September 2022. Known as Music City Khairagarh, the foundation of Asia’s first art and music university and the first university of Chhattisgarh state was laid here by the then ruler King Virendra Bahadur Singh and Queen Padmavati in 1956. He named this university in the memory of his daughter Indira and donated his Raj Bhavan for the establishment of Music and Fine Arts University. Which reflects the rich cultural heritage of Khairagarh dedicated to visual and performing arts.
