Description

At the center of Rolpa is an area that OpenStreetMap has as "Liwang Bazar". It seems to be in the middle of Rolpa municipality. When you hover over it, it is shown as "Musikot" in Rukum West. This is almost surely wrong. Possibilities:

- It is actually part of the Rolpa muncipality that is both to the north and to the south of it on the map.
- It is some other municipal or local unit, not Musikot, not Rolpa muncipality.

To see this, go to https://beta.nepalmap.org/profiles/district-58-rolpa/ and hover over the local units on the map. When you hover over the little area in the middle (where OpenStreetMap has the legend "Liwang Bazar", you'll see that the tooltip calls it "Musikot" and another area just north of Rolpa district turns green along with it. You'll also notice the "Rolpa" local district is cut in half by that "Musikot". Why? Is that area really part of the Rolpa municipality? Is it something else. Are the two areas that are identified as the Rolpa municipality actually two different local units? Is one of them misidentified?

Research direction

Open the NepalMap Rolpa district profile and hover over the Liwang Bazar area to reproduce the Musikot tooltip and split boundary. Compare the displayed local-unit assignment with the OpenStreetMap label and authoritative local-unit boundaries. Done means the area and tooltip identify the correct local unit, with the boundary rendered consistently.
