Khairhani Municipality, located in the Narayani Zone under the Central Development Region, is located about 18 km east of Bharatpur, the headquarters of Chitwan district. Formed as per the decision of the Government of Nepal dated 2071/01/25, this municipality was formed by merging three Village Development Committees of Chitwan district, namely Chainpur, Khairhanir and Kumroj. According to the decision of the Government of Nepal dated 2072/06/01, after Kathar Village Development Committee was also included in this municipality, Khairhani Municipality is the combined form of the former four Village Development Committees. Initially, it came forward with the concept of a small rural market, but after the construction of the East-West Highway, it is undergoing rapid urbanization. Parsa Bazaar can be considered as the main market of this city. This market is also the main trading center of Chainpur, Bhandara, Kathar, Kumroj, Birendranagar, Pithuwa and other nearby settlements. There are various legends regarding how Khairhani Municipality was named. It is said that the word Khayarghari, which was then known as Khayarghari, was corrupted and became Khairhani because the area was filled with abundant Khayar in ancient times. The name Khairhani Village Development Committee was named after the same name, and the municipality was formed by including the Khairhani Village Development Committee, and the name of this municipality was changed to Khairhani Municipality.
