Bungtang (Currently Myagang Rural Municipality Ward no.2) बुङताङ is a village development committee in Nuwakot District in the Bagmati Zone (Bagmati Province ) of central Nepal. At the time of the 2011 Nepal census it had a population of 3288 living in 743 individual households.[1]

The original name of the village was "Bomtang". In Bhot language "Bomo" बोमो means Daughter or female "Tang" तङ means "being happy". "Bomtang" was such a beautiful place that women/female used to be happy when they come here. Hence the name "Bomtang". Later as it passed on was written Bungtang(बुङताङ).
