Mandani (as the name represents "Mun" which is the unit of mass equals 50 kilogram and "Dany" is taken from "Darai" unit of mass equals 5 kilogram.)is a town and union council in Charsadda District of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa.[1] Mandani is located at 34°20'46N 71°47'10E and has an altitude of 376 meters (1236 feet).
So it is believed about Mandani that here a farmer sowed one Mun of seed of wheat and it yielded one Darai of grain which typically reflects the idea of barren nature of this area so its name roots in this concept. In fact it is a misconception because it is the most fertile and prosperous union council of District Charsadda.
Mandani has been a great seat of different cultures and of great political importance. It contains about 6 private colleges and about eight(8) schools. Hira Model High School Mandani is considered as one of the best schools of District Charsadda.
Mandani has been a great seat of the Hindus empire before the partition of India.
