For administrative convenience, the district is divided into 13 tehsils and 13 blocks. The district covers about of total area of the State.

8 jaipur , the capital city is also popularly known as Pink city and is situated towards central part of the district . jaipur is very much on the world tourist map, known for gems and jewellery and is also popular for Sanganer and Bagru prints. A map of the district showing taluka boundaries, taluka headquarters, physical features and locations of monitoring wells is presented as Figure 1. Systematic Hydrogeological Surveys in the district were first carried out by Geological Survey of INDIA during 1965 - 1968. These surveys were continued by Central ground WATER Board, after its establishment in 1972.
