Dargazin-e Gharbi Rural District (Persian: دهستان درگزین غربی) is in the Central District of Dargazin County, Hamadan province, Iran. Its capital is the village of Behkandan,[2] whose population at the time of the 2016 National Census was 871 in 280 households.[3]
After the 2016 census, the former Qorveh-e Darjazin District separated from Razan County in the establishment of Dargazin County, which was divided into two districts of two rural districts each, with the city of Qorveh-e Dargazin as its capital. Dargazin-e Gharbi Rural District was created in the new Central District.[2]
