Purchaudi

Southern Asia

Purchaudi is a municipality in Baitadi District of Sudurpashchim Province, Nepal. It was established on 10 March 2017, when the Government of Nepal announced 744 local level units under its new constitution, by merging the villages of Kotila, Bhatana, Bhumiraj, Kuwakot, Nwadeu, Mahadevsthan, Hat, Malladehi, Talladehi and Bijayapur. The 2011 census counted roughly 39,000 people in the area that now forms the municipality, and it covers 198.52 square kilometres divided into ten wards. The municipal headquarters is the town of Hat. Like the other municipalities created in the 2017 restructuring, it is a unit of local government whose boundaries combine former village development committees rather than an ancient town.
