Garuda

Southern Asia

Garuda is a municipality in Rautahat District in the Narayani Zone of south-eastern Nepal. It was created by merging seven former village development committees: Garuda Bairiya, Malahi, Basbiti Jingadiya, Gedahiguthi, Jayanagar, Mahamadpur and Pothiyahi. The municipality lies on the fertile plain of the Terai and has a humid tropical climate, with a mean annual rainfall of 2,214 millimetres between 1995 and 2006, more than 80 percent of it falling in the monsoon from June to September. Its economy grew around the Shree Ram Sugar Mill, erected in 1994, and the Gaur-Chandranigahpur Highway, which makes the town a trading hub for Rautahat District.
