English: Balaghat district is in the southeast corner of Madhya Pradesh, in the tristate area, sharing parts of its border with Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh states of India. It derives it name from Baraghat (twelve ghat-hills). The region has been home to some of earliest attestable history of tribal kingdoms that adopted Hinduism, including the Gonds, who built forts and temples with Hindu architecture between the 9th-century and 14th-century. They came under the hegemony of various Sultanates, then the Marathas, thereafter as a part of Nagpur Province under the colonial British. It is during the colonial era, Baraghat was phonetically misspelled as Balaghat and created as a district.
Balaghat district should not be confused with Balaghat range – a 300 km long range of hills in Maharashtra.
