The old name "Necha Bideshi" can not easily be interpreted or understood; Bideshi do not convey any apparent meaning in the modern language of this area. This is due to a general set of processes through which place names evolve over time, until their obvious meaning is lost. Its current name Betghari (नेचा बेतघारी) is false analogy. The current name suggests this place has a unique cane (बेत) in the locality along with goddess Kalika, one of the goddess of power (शक्तिकि देवी).

Necha Betghari is also home to various people of different ethnicity. This is populated by Native Kirats and Brahmins (Jamarkattels, Bastola, Bhattarai, Ghimire, Acharya, Fuyal), Chettris (Bhandari, Raut, Basnet) and Dalits. Since a long period of time people are engaged in agriculture and farmimg.
