Introduction of Myagdi District:
Historical Background
Myagdi district is a hilly district which lies in Gandaki Province of the Federal Republic of Nepal. This district has its own historical identity. The district is named after the name of a river “Myagdi” which originates from mount Dhawalagiri and flows from North-West to the South-East of the district. There are different sayings behind origin of the word “Myagdi”. It is said that “Meng” means Thapas and “Di” means the river, combination forms the name of river “Mengdi” , the river that flows in the state ruled by Thapas. Later it turned into Myagdi however it is called Mengdi in Magar language still. There are many ancient and historically important places in Myagdi. The place where sage Jadbharat gave his lectures to the King of Rahugandh is located here as Jadbharat cave in Galeshwar. The place which is famous as the name “Raakhu” in the present days, is considered as the capital of Rahugandh of that time . Sage Pulatsya had been sheltered in “Pulaa” which is known as Pulachour VDC these days. Similarly, it is believed that the birthplace of grandson of Pulatsya the son of Bishwa the King of Lanka “Raawan” also lieshere.
It is mentioned in history that the King of Lichchhavi Dynasty Mandev had supressed the agitation of Mallapuri towards the opposite of Gandaki. The currency of Mandev I was found in Baglung so it is believed that the place Mallapuri was around Baglung and Myagdi.The first King of Thapa dynasty Kaalu Thapa (1246B.S.) had founded Takam State and the regime of Thapa dynasty continued for 300 years. In 1545 B.S. Dimba Bam Malla had defeated Thapas and merged all the today’s Dhawalagiri Zone’s districts to form a great Parbat state. Being a part of Parbat state formed by Bam Malla, Myagdi had its own identity. It is said that Kirti Bam Malla had established a palace in Dholthana and Thana in Beni. During the regime of Rana Bahadur Shah, Bahadur Shah had merged Parbat State into the Kingdom of Nepal and then Myagdi had been existed as an inseperable part. After the unification and during the Rana regime this district had been kept under the Palpa Administration. Later after the establishment of Baglung Gaundaa , all the administrative and judicial works carried out from there.
