Budhi Gandaki River (original) (raw)

The Budhi Gandaki River (Nepali: बूढीगण्डकी नदी) is a tributary of Gandaki River in Nepal. It meets the Trishuli at the small named place of Benighat, astride Dhading and Gorkha Districts. Nepal, as of 2017, plans to build a dam with associated electricity transformers and pylons that would cost $2.5 billion. Such a dam on the river and its reservoir would straddle the Dhading and Gorkha districts.
