Administrative divisions
The Kotli District was previously a subdivision of the Mirpur District until 1975.[3] Before 1947, it was part of the Jammu area of Jammu and Kashmir. The district is divided into five tehsils:
- Kotli Tehsil[3]
- Charhoi Tehsil
- Sehnsa Tehsil
- Fatehpur Nakyal Tehsil[3]
- Khuiratta Tehsil[3]
- Dilyan Jattan Tehsil
Education
According to the Pakistan District Education Ranking 2017, a report by Alif Ailaan, the Kotli District stands at number 7 nationally relating to education, with a score of 73.68. The learning score stands at 85.67 and gender parity is at 93.45.[6]
According to the same report, the Kotli District is ranked at 119 nationally, with a learning score of 35.47 and a retention score of 35.36.[6] The learning score is low because of a lack of quality teachers and proper teacher training. The retention score is low because of the low number of beyond-primary schools.
With regard to infrastructure, the Kotli District stands at 154, with a score of 14.14, which is the second lowest in Pakistan and its two dependent territories.[6] That score shows that there is a serious problem with the lack of basic facilities such as electricity, functional toilets, furniture, and boundary walls.
