Qalacha ({{langx|prs|قلاچه}}), is a neighborhood in District 8 of southeastern Kabul, Afghanistan.[http://www.aims.org.af/services/regional/kabul/maps/districts/kbl_dist_8.pdf Kabul City Map - District 8]. Afghan Information Management Services
The area was home to a cremation ground used by Afghan Hindus and Afghan Sikhs since the 1890s, but has since become a controversy as local Muslims object to cremations on the site.[http://www.rawa.org/temp/runews/2009/10/24/the-hindus-have-no-proper-place-for-cremation.html The Hindus have no Proper Place for Cremation « RAWA News]
Qalacha is a rather poor area with an inadequate quality water supply as of 2019.[https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Kabul-Police-Districts.pdf Kabul Unpacked. A geographical guide to a metropolis in the making]
