Boudh was a sub-division of the erstwhile Boudh-Kandhamal District. On 2nd January, 1994, it became the district headquarters of a separate district called Boudh that was carved out of the Boudh-Kandhamal district. Earlier, the consolidated Judgeship of Kandhamal-Boudh and Phulbani was part of the undivided Judgeship of Ganjam. The judgeship of Kandhamal-Boudh and Phulbani was separated from the undivided Judgeship of Ganjam-Berhampur on 11th August, 1984.
The Boudh judgeship was finally separated from Kandhamal-Boudh and began operating with effect from 6th October, 2012. 15 different courts are functioning in the judgeship with outlying stations at Kantamal and Harabhanga at Charichhaka.
In the year 2024, Swachchta camps, Cybersecurity awareness camps, Plantation drives, and Street plays were organized for the awareness of the people.
