HISTORICAL INFORMATION OF BIHAR

June 28, 2019 by harsha Leave a Comment

Bihar has a historical relevance of over 3000 years. Scores of ancient monuments are dotted across the state and these are visited by around 6 million tourists each year. Bihar is a sacred hub for Sikhism, Hinduism, Islam, Jainism and Buddhism. The Mahatma Gandhi Setu Bridge is one of the longest bridges in the world. The Mahabodhi temple is a UNESCO heritage site and is located in Bihar.

Bihar, the ancient land of Buddha, has witnessed golden period of Indian history. It is the same land where the seeds of the first republic were sown and which cultivated the first crop of democracy. Such fertile is the soil that has given birth to innumerous intellectuals which spread the light of knowledge and wisdom not only in the country but in the whole world. The state has its capital at Patna, which is situated on the bank of the holy river Ganga. The state as it is today has been shaped from its partition from the province of Bengal and most recently after the separation of the tribal southern region now called Jharkhand.

During most of British India, Bihar was a part of the Presidency of Bengal, and was governed from Calcutta. As such, this was a territory very much dominated by the people of Bengal. All leading educational and medical centers were in Bengal. In spite of the unfair advantage that Bengalis possessed, some sons of Bihar rose to positions of prominence, by dint of their intelligence and hard labor. One such was Rajendra Prasad, native of Ziradei, in the district of Saran. He became the first President of the Republic of India.
