History
Nepalese Civil War
Jelbang was used by Maoist rebels during the Nepalese Civil War as a military base where they trained recruits. In 2003, government forces sent in helicopters which heavily bombed Jelbang, killing 73 people, in what is now known as the Jelbang Killings. It was the largest massacre during the war.[4][5] In commemoration of the killings, Jailwang has been described as a "Model Peace Village" and a "Village of Martyrs". [by whom?]
Postwar Nepal
In 2020, an Article in Nagarik reported that a defunct Mine in Jelbang would be converted into a Museum. Local Authorities hope it may boost Tourism in Jelbang. [2]
