The District of Pali is situated in Rajasthan State of Northwestern India. It is 12387 Sq. Km. in area. It is surrounded by District Jodhpur on the Northwest, District Barmer on the West, District Jalore on the West, District Sirohi on the Southwest, District Udaipur on the South, District Rajsamand on the Southeast and East, District Ajmer on the Northeast and District Nagaur on the North.

It is believed that District Pali existed since Pre-historic age. In the Vedic age, Maharshi Javali stayed in this area for meditation and compilation of Vedas. The Pandavas in the Mahabharata age also have made this area (near Bali) their resting place during the exile.

The area was ruled by King Kanishka in 120 A.D., by the Chalukya King Harshavardhana in the 7th Century A.D. After the Arab invasions of India, this area was captured by Rajput rulers. After the defeat of Prithvi Raj Chauhan in the second battle of Tarain, the Rajput power of the area was disintegrated and Mewar and Godwad area of Pali came under Maharana Kumbha, the ruler of Mewar. But Pali city which was ruled by Brahmin rulers with the help of neighbouring Rajput rulers, remained peaceful. In the 17th Century, it came under the rule of Rathores of Marwar State. Today it has emerged as an important Industrial City of Rajasthan.
