Dera Ghazi Khan (Urdu: ڈیرہ غازی خان) is a district in Punjab, Pakistan. The district of Dera Ghazi Khan contains an area of 5,306 m². The district is a long narrow strip of country, 198 m. in length, sloping gradually from the hills which form its western boundary to the river Indus on the east.

The Punjab/ پنجاب province of Pakistan is part of the larger Punjab region. ...
Below the hills the country is high and arid, generally level, but sometimes rolling in sandy undulations, and much intersected by hill torrents, 201 in number. With the exceptions of two, these streams dry up after the rains, and their influence is only felt for a few miles below the hills.
The eastern portion of the district is at a level sufficiently low to benefit by the floods of the Indus. A barren tract intervenes between these zones, and is beyond the reach of the hill streams on the one hand and of the Indus on the other. Although liable to great extren~es of temperature, and to a very scanty rainfall, the district is not unhealthy.
The population in 1901 was 471,149 - the great majority being Baluch Muslims. The frontier tribes on the Dera Ghazi Khan border include the Qesrani, Bozdar, Khosa, Laghari, Khetrans, Gurchani, Mazari, Marri and Bugti tribes. The chief of these are described under their separate names.
The district had a population of 1,643,118 of which 13.76% were urban in 1998.[1]
