Kedar Sigdel is a Nepali politician and former member of the House of Representatives.

He was elected under the first-past-the-post (FPTP) system from Tanahun–2 in the 2017 general election. He defeated his nearest rival Shankar Bhandari of Nepali Congress by acquiring 32,924 votes to Bhandari's 29,645. This was the first time he was elected to parliament.

Sigdel did not contest the seat in the 2022 general election, instead opting to run for the provincial assembly from Tanahun 2 (B), but he was defeated by Congress' Jeet Prakash Ale Magar by a margin of 640 votes.
