-A district ([[Urdu]]: ضلع‬ {{translation|ur|जिला}}) serves as the primary level of local government in Pakistan. The country has a total of 149 districts, including several designated as city districts. The governing structure consists of a District Government or a City District Government along with a Zillah Council, with the District Coordination Officer acting as the administrative leader. Prior to 2010, the District Governor or Zila Nazim held the position of executive head for districts, but responsibilities were transferred to the District Coordination Officers at that time. Their duties resemble those of district governors, focusing on the execution of government policies and the development of related initiatives.
