Dhani Bandhawali is a small village situated near Nangal Choudhary Town (First Cyber Village of Haryana). The village originated from Nangal Kaliya village, which is situated 2 km from it. "Dhani" is a Rajasthani word which means a small village. The name "Bandhawali" originated from the name of an old well Bandhala situated in the center of the village. The name therefore signifies "The small village with Bandhala Well". It is represented by Nangal Choudhary assembly seat of Haryana Government and District Mohindergarh since the last Assembly election in 2009. Earlier it was a part of the Ateli assembly seat.
