Demographics

[edit]

According to ward-level household listing data from the 2021 Nepal census (2078 BS) published by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), the constituency has a total population of 161,530.[15]

The constituency is composed of a mix of rural municipalities and partially included urban municipalities, resulting in a diverse demographic profile. Rural areas such as Khanikhola, Temal, Mahabharat, and Chaurideurali rural municipalities are predominantly inhabited by hill communities, while Namobuddha Municipality and parts of Dhulikhel and Panauti municipalities include more densely populated and urbanizing settlements.

Ethnically, the constituency is primarily inhabited by Tamang communities, along with Brahmin, Chhetri, Newar, and other groups. The Tamang population forms a significant proportion, especially in the rural hill municipalities. The constituency reflects the broader ethnic diversity of Kavrepalanchok District.

The population distribution is uneven, with higher population concentrations in municipal wards and relatively lower densities in remote rural wards. Migration, particularly foreign employment and internal migration toward urban centers, has influenced population dynamics in the region.

The male and female population distribution is relatively balanced, with a slight female majority in several rural wards, consistent with broader demographic trends observed in hill districts of Nepal.
