DISTRICT PROFILE

Konaseema district is a proposed district in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh. With Amalapuram as its administrative headquarters, it was proposed on 26 January 2022 to become one of the resultant twenty-six districts of the state once a final notification is issued by the government of Andhra Pradesh. The district would be formed from Amalapuram and Ramachandrapuram revenue divisions from East Godavari district.The Godavari delta is surrounded by the tributaries of Vruddha Godavari, Vasishta Godavari, Gautami and Nilarevu.

After crossing the city of Rajahmundry, the Godavari River bifurcates into two distributaries, the Vruddha Gautami (Gautami Godavari) and the Vasishta Godavari, which then further splits into the Gautami and the Nilarevu. Similarly, the Vasishta splits into two branches, the Vasishta and the Vainateya. These branches form a delta 170 km (105 mi) long along the coast of the Bay of Bengal. This delta makes up the Konaseema region.

Amalapuram is the largest town in Konaseema, followed by Razole, Ravulapalem, Kothapeta, and Mummidivaram.
