Sandhikharka Municipality (Nepali: सन्धिखर्क नगरपालिका) is the headquarter of Arghakhanchi District which lies in Lumbini Province of Nepal. The former village development committee (VDC) was converted into a municipality on 18 May 2014 by merging the existing Sandhikharka, Wangla, Narapani, Khanchikot, Kimadada, Argha and Dibharna VDCs.[1][2] It is located, in a valley surrounded by hills, in the western part of the capital, Kathmandu.
