About Dhangadi
A sub-metropolitan city in Far Western Nepal which is the headquarters of Kailali District in Seti Zone. Dhangadi was established in 1976 and is divided into 14 wards. Dhangadhi became the first sub-metropolitan city in the Far-West after government upgraded it from municipality status on 18 September 2015 and incorporated Fulbari and Urma VDCs. The 11th Municipal Council meeting of Dhangadhi had decided to fulfill all prerequisites for becoming a sub-metro. Last July, the former municipality and district-level political mechanism had endorsed the proposal for forming a sub-metro. Kailali District Administration Office had, in turn, endorsed the proposal and forwarded it to the Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development. Dhangadhi is the major business hub for Far Western Region of Nepal and is the major provider of education, health and employment opportunities in west Nepal. CP Hospital Private Limited, Seti Zonal Hospital, Navjeevan Hospital and other small-scale hospitals provide health care. Dhangadi is also known as the major tourist attraction area.
