Birendranagar - Demography

Demography

Historically Birendranagar and the surrounding area of Surkhet were the lands of the Tharu and Local Rajhi, however the region has seen increased migration from the surrounding mountain regions as well as other parts of the country, although unstable political conditions have affected Birendranagar. The population of the city is approximately 55,000. Villagers from smaller surrounding communities migrate here in search of increased security and opportunity.
