Barahathwa

Southern Asia

Barahathwa is a municipality in Sarlahi District, in the former Janakpur Zone of central Nepal. It was established on 19 September 2015 when the existing Barahathwa village development committee was merged with the nearby Murtiya, Hajariya, Sundarpur Chuhadwa and Laukat committees, and the municipal centre was placed in the old village office at Barahathwa Bazaar. The announcement that created it was part of a government decision to form 26 new municipalities, upgrading Barahathwa from a merely proposed municipality. After the merger the combined population was 50,424 at the 2011 census, and the article expects it to reach 100,000 within a decade.
