Getting a random location in India
The tool starts on In a country: India. Each spin lands on an Indian city or town of 5,000 people or more, from a list of 6,471 in the 28 states and 8 union territories.
To stay in one state, switch to In a state and pick it, such as Rajasthan or Assam. India stays picked.
Why Tamil Nadu comes up most
Each town has the same chance, so states with more towns in the list come up more often. Tamil Nadu has 1,014, Kerala 511, Maharashtra 511 and Uttar Pradesh 490. Sikkim has 6.
Tamil Nadu and Kerala lead because the source data lists many census towns there as places of their own. For an even spread, use In a state with Any state: each spin picks one of the 36 first, then a town in it.
Random Indian towns in bulk
Set "How many places?" to any number up to 500 for a list of Indian towns with their state and coordinates, pinned on the map.
Copy it or download it as CSV, GeoJSON or plain text, for a map, a survey sample or test data.

Frequently asked questions
Are the union territories included?
Yes, all 8. Delhi has 100 places in the list. In Ladakh it holds Leh, Kargil, Choglamsar and Padam.
Does it include the islands?
Yes. Andaman and Nicobar has 8 towns in the list and Lakshadweep 6, including Kavaratti and Minicoy.
Is Jammu and Kashmir included?
Yes, as a union territory, with 103 towns in the list. Kargil, in Ladakh next door, is the most northern town on the India list; Campbell Bay on Great Nicobar Island is the most southern.
Why are there no marks over the vowels in town names?
Indian names use the plain English spelling, not the scholarly one: Nizamabad, not Nizāmābād. They are easier to read, search and sort.
Is Delhi a state here?
Delhi is a union territory, and it has its own entry in the list, so In a state lets you pick it like any state.
