[[File:India Mizoram Districts map EN.svg|thumb|right|300px|Districts of [[Mizoram]]]]
The [[India]]n state of [[Mizoram]] is divided into 11 districts [[Aizawl district|Aizawl]], [[Lunglei district|Lunglei]], [[Champhai district|Champhai]], [[Saiha district|Saiha]], [[Kolasib district|Kolasib]], [[Serchhip district|Serchhip]], [[Lawngtlai district|Lawngtlai]], [[Mamit district|Mamit]], [[Saitual district|Saitual]], [[Hnahthial district|Hnahtaial]] and [[Khawzawl district|Khawzawl]].

==History==
When Mizoram became a [[union territory]] on 21 January 1972, it was divided into three districts: Aizawl, Lunglei and Chhimtuipui. Later five more districts were carved out of the already existing three districts.

==Administrative structure==
A district of Mizoram is headed by a [[Deputy Commissioner]] who is in charge of the administration in that particular district. He has to perform triple functions as he holds three positions as the deputy commissioner, the [[district magistrate]] and the [[district collector]]. As a deputy commissioner he is the executive head of the district. The district magistrate is responsible for maintaining the law and order situation in the district. As the collector he is the chief revenue officer responsible for revenue collection and recovery.

A [[superintendent of police]] controls the [[police]] administration of each district.

A district is divided into one or more subdivisions, further divided into [[tehsil]]s and [[Block (country subdivision)|block]]s.
