Khandesh District (or Kandesh, Khandeish) was a district, administrative division of Bombay presidency of British India during British rule of India, the district was made up of present-day Jalgaon, Dhule and Nandurbar districts of Maharashtra. Its headquarter was Dhule town.[2][3]

In the 18th and early 19th centuries, Khandesh was part of the Maratha Confederacy[citation needed], and was ruled by the Maratha Peshwa. The district was annexed to British India at the conclusion of the Third Anglo-Maratha War in 1818[citation needed]. A southern portion of the district was detached to form Nashik District in 1869. In 1906 the district was bifurcated into East Khandesh and West Khandesh districts, with their capitals at Jalgaon and Dhulia (Dhule), respectively. In 1960 East Khandesh was renamed to Jalgaon District, and West Khandesh to Dhule district.[3] In 1998 Dhule was divided to form Nandurbar districts.[citation needed]
