*Jhor Mahankal**
Ward No. 1 of Tokha Municipality is primarily known as Jhor Mahankal (also referred to as Jhor or Jhormahankal), the main neighborhood name derived from its former Village Development Committee (VDC).[1][2][4][5] Other neighborhoods or toles within this ward include settlements like Baundu, as noted in geographical references.[1]
This ward, located in the northern belt of Tokha Municipality, features comparatively open spaces compared to more urbanized southern wards.[5] It is historically significant as the former Jhor Mahankal VDC (covering its wards 1-9) and is associated with temples and cultural sites documented in Kathmandu Valley records.[1][4] Notable characteristics include its rural-to-urban transition areas with traditional settlements.[1]
