The Kingdom of Argha (Nepali: अर्घा) was a petty kingdom in the confederation of 24 states known as Chaubisi Rajya.[1] It was part of the Kingdom of Palpa but it broke off to become an independent kingdom.[2] Later Argha, and the Kingdom of Khanchi merged becoming Arghakhanchi.[3] Argha was annexed into the Kingdom of Nepal during the Unification of Nepal by commanders Amar Singh Thapa and Damodar Pande.[4]
