dist, ad p District Explanation: Dist = district that's okey and common. But what about 'ad p'? 'ad' and 'p' jointly form this term as per the question. No clear answer received for the term yet. Most likely a clearer context will be helpful to understand it. |

dist, ad p District, permanent address Explanation: Everyone correctly mentioned "District" for "dist". For "Ad. P.", I guess it could be "Permanent address". In Bangladesh only country name comes after District name. So, if the current address is given before then the permanent address can come after it and "Ad." may indicate "address" and "P" may indicate "permanent". |

Dist, Ad. P. District, Postal Address Explanation: Ad. P. => here refers to a Postal Address, the address of a person which can be reached by post/mail. (It may or may not necessarily be a permanent address, and often a postal address is a temporary one) Dist. => District, an administrative unit whereas the country is divided into several such units. I hope this solves your question. Thanks ! Best of luck ! |
