Ratuwamai

Southern Asia

Ratuwamai is a municipality and rural town in the south-eastern Terai of Morang District in Koshi Province, Nepal. It was formed in March 2017 by merging six village development committees: Sijuwa, Itahara, Jhurkiya, Mahadeva, Govindapur and Baradanga, the last two in part. The English Wikipedia article gives its area as 142.15 square kilometres. It borders Jhapa District on the east, Sunawarshi and Pathari Shanishchare municipalities on the west, Urlabari municipality on the north and the Indian state of Bihar on the south. Agriculture is the main occupation. Its population is given as about 55,400 in two places, but with slightly different figures, so no single total is written here.
