Zhob District (Pashto: ږوب ولسوالۍ, Urdu: ضلع ژوب) is a district in the northwestern part of Balochistan province of Pakistan. The population of Zhob District was estimated at 355,692 in 2023.[2] Water from Zhob River is used for irrigation in the district.
Administration
The 1998 census report lists two sub-divisions: Lower Zhob (comprising Zhob tehsil and Sambaza sub-tehsil) and Kakar Khurasan (encompassing the tehsil of Qamar Din Karez and the subtehsil of Ashewat).[3] A government webpage lists these as Ashwat, Qamar Din Karez, Sambaza and Zhob, without indicating if any of them are sub-tehsils.[4]
Demography
In the 2023 census, 1,732 (0.49%) people in the district were from religious minorities.[5]
At the time of the 2023 census, 97.65% of the population spoke Pashto and 1.49% Saraiki as their first language.[1]
The majority of the population of Zhob district is Pashtun. The tribes of Zhob district include the Mandokhail, Khosti, Sherani, Kakar, Sulaimankhel, Harifal, Lawoon and Babar. A large number of IDPs were settled within the confines of the district as part of the evacuation from Operation Zarb-e-Azb that took place to the north of Zhob.[citation needed]
