About this place
Durg is a major city in Chhattisgarh, situated along the east bank of the Shivnath River on the central Indian plain. Historically part of the ancient Kosala kingdom, the city’s name comes from the Hindi word for fort, reflecting its past as a Maratha stronghold. Today it serves as an agricultural hub and sits near the massive Bhilai steel plant to the east, giving it a blend of historical depth and industrial significance.
