The Division of Indi /ɪnˈd/ is an Australian Electoral Division in Victoria. It is located in north-eastern Victoria.[1] It is one of the largest divisions in Victoria. A lot of its area is in the Alpine National Park. It includes the cities of Wodonga, Wangaratta, and Benalla, and the smaller towns of Rutherglen, Mansfield, Beechworth, Bethanga, Myrtleford, Corryong, Tallangatta, Yea and Euroa.[1] It also includes the ski resort of Falls Creek and the isolated village of Woods Point.[1]
