Name
The second part of the name in the local language - प्रभा - doesn't look much like the name in Google Maps परवाहा; I suspect the latter is correct, because the transliteration of the former is Prabha - the 'pr' sound is as proof in English. The pronunciation of परवाहा is very close to Parbaha; there's a short 'uh' sound (unvoiced vowel) after the प, as distinct from a long 'a' sound (as in 'far') after the ब and the ह. (Note that the spelling is actually व (w), not ब (b); i.e. it should be Parwaha). Someone may want to comment on the correctness (or otherwise) of Google Maps.

 * @Prisoner of Zenda the current title of the article is per the digital himalaya ref. This gives the Nepali name as खोक्सर प्रवाहा. Because there are so many languages and dialects, I wouldn't know which is the most correct among the options we have in both English and in Devanagari. खोक्सर प्रवाहा/Khoksar Prawaha sounds like the closest to Sanskrit. Since this is in Madhes, the locals probably call it  परवाहा. I don't think it matters much, but if you'd like you can move it to Khoksar Parwaha and put in खोक्सर  परवाहा as the native name.

 * I hoped that the census (ref 3) was bilingual, so that I could get an official version of the name - but I was disappointed: the census info is English only. Prisoner of Zenda (talk) 21:19, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
