Lamjung Samaj UK (LSUK) was formed on January 1, 2007 to gather all the Lamjung Bashi living in the UK to promote and preserve Nepalese culture and activities.
Lamjung, a district that falls under the western development region, lies in the Gandaki Zone of Nepal. Besishahar as a district headquarter. The district, which is the home of approximately two lakhs (200,000) people, has a literacy rate of 56%. There are 61 Village Development Committees (V.D.Cs) in this district. Five campuses, 15 higher secondary schools and 268 schools have been established to advance the education sector.
Because of the very small number of telephones available in the district, post offices are the main and the most reliable means of communication and are present in all 61 V.D.Cs. There is only one hospital in the district but at least one health post in all the 61 V.D.Cs.
Occupying an area of 1692kms, the district is neighboured by the districts of Gorkha, Manang, Kaski and Tanahu. Its abundance of natural resources goes untapped due to a lack in proper road infrastructure. Both, water and forest resources, have not been properly and wisely utilized. Most of the villages lack electricity and may continue to lack it in the coming years too.
The following are the Village Development Committes (V.D.Cs) of Lamjung district.
