Sunkhani is a village development committee of the Nuwakot District in the Bagmati Zone of central Nepal. In the 1991 Nepal census its population of 2340 people lived in 437 households.[1] One major attraction is the Shanti Dharma Stupa, a 15-metre high memorial stupa built in memory of those who died in the April 2015 Nepal earthquake by a religious group called Honmon Butsuryu Shu to help propagate Buddhist ideas of peace, happiness and general social welfare.
