About Mandals in Nellore District

Nellore District in Andhra Pradesh is divided into 38 mandals (also known as tehsils, mandals, or subdivisions in different parts of India). These sub-district administrative divisions collectively cover approximately 1,637 villages and form the critical link between the district administration and grassroots communities.

Each mandal in Nellore District is headed by a Tahsildar (also called Mandal Officer or Revenue Officer), who serves as the primary administrative authority at the sub-district level.

The mandal office (Taluk/Tehsil/Mandal office) is where citizens interact most frequently with the government for day-to-day administrative needs.
