Gurbhakot

Gurbhakot is an urban municipality in Surkhet District in Karnali Province of Nepal. At the 2011 Nepal census the municipality had a total population of 43,765 and covered 228.62 square kilometres, and it is divided into 14 wards. Its present shape comes from the 2017 reorganisation of local government, when the government set aside the old administrative system and introduced 753 new local level administrative bodies. The municipality is bordered by Salyan to the east and south, by the Bheriganga to the west, and by Simta and Chingad to the north. It sits within Nepal, a landlocked country in South Asia that the 2015 constitution divides into seven provinces, Karnali being one of them.
