Aukh District (Chechen: Ӏовхойн кӀошт[1], Russian: Ауховский район) — formed in October 1943 as part of the Dagestan Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, in which Chechens-Aukhs lived compactly.[2] In the 19th century, the territory of the district was part of the North Caucasus Imamat where an administrative unit was formed - Aukh.[3] After the end of the Caucasian War, an administrative unit existed at the place of residence of Aukh-Chechens for some time - Aukh district.[4]

At the end of February 1944, Aukh-Chechens were evicted along with Chechens and Ingush from Checheno-Ingushetia to Central Asia, and the district was renamed Novolaksky District. Part of the district was transferred to the neighboring Kazbekovsky District and settled by Avars from Almak.[5][2] According to the decision of the III Congress of People's Deputies, the district should be restored within the borders of 1944, including the villages of Leninaul and Kalininaul in the Aukh district.[6] The Lak population moves to the territory north of Makhachkala where the Novolaksky district will be formed.[7]
