Wahi Pandhi (Sindhi: واهي پانڌي, Urdu: واہی پاندھی) is a town near Johi,[1][2] Dadu District of Sindh, Pakistan.[3] A road from Wahi Pandhi leads to Gorakh Hill, a hill station in the Kirthar Mountains.[4][5] An archaeological mound, locally famous as 'Kotero Daro',[6] was explored by N. G. Majumdar during his explorations in Sindh from 1926 to 1929.[7] The pottery of Amri[8] and Harappan phase was explored at the mound.[9]
