Nijrab District

Nijrāb District, (Pashto/Persian: نجراب), also called Nijrāw, is situated in the central part of Kapisa Province, Afghanistan.

The mountains that form the boundary with Laghman Province are the highest points in the district and reach a height of around 14,000 feet.

Rivers from the nearby Hindu Kush mountains and springs provide the majority of drinking water for district residents; however, hundreds of hand pump wells have been installed by the National Solidarity Program (NSP).
