                                         History of Bihar

                                       Ancient Times
The land mass currently known as Bihar is very ancient. The name is derived from “Vihara” – a
land of monasteries. Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, Muslim, and Sikh shrines abound in this ancient
land. Earliest myths and legends of Hinduism are associated with Bihar. Sita, the Consort of
Lord Rama, daughter of King Janak was born in Sitamarhi. The ancient kingdom of Janak
called Vidaha consisted of present day districts of Muzaffarpur, Sitamarhi, Samastipur,
Madhubany, and Darbhanga. The original author of the Hindu epic – The Ramayana –
Maharishi Valmiki lived in Valmikinager, a small town in West Champaran.

It was here in Bodhgaya, under a banyan tree, the Bodh tree, that Prince Gautama attained
supreme knowledge to become Buddha, the enlightened one. Most of the major events of his
life, like enlightenment, last sermon, and nirvana (death) happened in Bihar. The great religion
of Buddhism was born here, and Bodhgaya is one of the most important and sacred Buddhist
pilgrimage centers in the world.

The Lord Mahavira, the founder of Jainism, was born at Vaishali and attained nirvana (death) at
Pawapuri, near Rajgir. The tenth and the last guru of the Sikhs, Guru Gobind Singh was born
in 1666 in Patna Sahib. A lovely and majestic Gurudwara – the Harmandir, built to
commemorate his memory, is one of the holiest places of worship for Sikhs. The ancient
kingdom of Magadh and of Licchavis, around 7-8 Century B.C. produced rulers who devised a
system of administration that truly is progenitor of the modern art of state-craft and of the
linkage of state-craft with economics. Magadh rose to glory during Guptas (4th and 5th centuries
A.D.) and produced Kaultilya, the author of Arthashastra, the first treaties of the modern
science of Economics and Chanakya, the advisor to the Magadh king, Chandragupta Maurya.
Chanakya produced the first Indian treaties on state-craft and politics. Patliputra (ancient name
of Patna, the Mauryan capital) was established by King Ajatshatru around 5th century B.C. at the
confluence of the rivers Sone and Ganga.

The Maurya Emperor Ashok (234-198 B.C) was the first to formulate firm tenets for the
government of a people. These edicts inscribed on stone pillars were planted across his
kingdom extending to almost all of the undivided India. Ashok was responsible also for the
widespread proselytization of people in Buddhism.

Nalanda, the world’s first seat of higher learning, a Monastic University was established during
the Gupta period and flourished from the 5th to the 11th century. The University had 9 million
books and 2000 teachers to impart knowledge to 10,000 students from all over the Buddhist
world. Lord Buddha himself taught here and Hieun Tsang, the 7th century Chinese traveler, was
a student. Ongoing excavations have uncovered temples, monasteries, lecture halls and
charred library burned by Mughal invaders.

The Khuda Baksh oriental library has rare muslim manuscripts including some from the
University of Cordoba, Spain.

                                      Medieval Times
The glorious history of Bihar lasted until around the 8th century Gupta Period. It was followed
up by the Palas of Bengal, who ruled until 1197, when the Mughal period began. In Medieval
Times, Bihar lost its prestige as the political and cultural center of India. The Mughal period,
which lasted from the 12th to the 17th century, was a period of unremarkable provincial
administration from Delhi. The only remarkable person of these times in Bihar was Sher Shah,
an Afghan whose rule in the 16th century extended all the way to the Punjab. His mausoleum is
located in Sasaram.

                                     Modern Times
The British acquired Bihar in 1764 in the Battle of Buxar and ruled until India’s independence in
1947. During most of British India, Bihar was a part of the Presidency of Bengal and was
governed from Calcutta, dominated by people from Bengal. When separated by the Bengal
Presidency in 1912, Bihar and Orissa comprised a single province. Later in 1935, the division of
Orissa became a separate province. In 1956 the southeast district of Puralia was incorporated
into West Bengal. The state was further bifurcated in 2001, and a new state “Jharkhand” came
into existence.

It was from Bihar that Mahatma Gandhi launched in 1917, his civil disobedience movement,
which ultimately led to India’s independence in 1947. Many people from Bihar became leading
participants in India’s struggle for independence. Dr. Rajendra Prasad became the first
President of the Republic of India. Jay Prakesh Narayan affectionately called JP, made
substantial contributions to modern Indian history until his death in 1979. It was he, who
steadfastly and staunchly opposed the autocratic rule of Indira Gandhi. The movement started
by JP, however brought the emergency to an end; led to the massive defeat of Indira Gandhi at
the poll and restored liberal democracy.

In the immediate post-independence period, Bihar saw an economic growth through
establishment of new industry and power projects. However, the state has experienced an
extreme and progressively escalating decline in the last decade or two, making it the worst
administered and the poorest state at the dawn of the new millennium. A new progressive
government came into power in November 2005 and has succeeded in reversing the economic
and law and order decline of decades, and is poised to make significant economic gain. Bihar’s
GDP grew at the rate of 11% during last 4 years, outpacing the India’s average growth.

This landlocked state of Bihar is surrounded by Nepal, Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, and comprises
three cultural regions – Bhojpur, Mithila, and Magadh. Rivers Kosi and Gandak from the north
and Sone from the south join the Ganga. In the fertile plains, rice, sugar cane, oilseeds, maize,
jute, barley and wheat are cultivated. The present Bihar is predominantly rural and agricultural.
BJANA HOLI & BIHAR DIWAS 2011



Jharkhand, which was carved out in 2000, comprises of Chotanagpur in south surrounded by
Bihar, Chattisgarh and Orissa. Damodar river flows through the picturesque plateau and its
valley is the Rohr of India. Under its soil, minerals abound.

                                              Tourism

Jerusalem is a place of religions pilgrimage for believers of three different religions- Christianity,
Islam, and Judaism. Bihar is the destination of religious tourism for believers of five distinct
religions- Buddhism, Islam, Sikhism, Jainism and Hinduism.

                                          Recent Events

The wall Street Journal reported on May 29, 2010 that India’s GDP grew 7.1% in FYE
3/31/2010, projected to grow 8.5% in FYE 3/31/2011, and is expected to grow at 11% in the
future. As against this, Bihar’s growth has been at 11% in last 4 years.

Bill Gates visited village Gulria in Khagaria in May 2010 to launch “kala jar” eradication program.

In September 2010, Dalai Lama inaugurated “Karuna” stupa in newly created Buddha Park in
Patna, near Patna railway station on the site of old Jail.

                                             SUPER 30

The Time Magazine named Super 30 in the list of “The Best of Asia 2010”. Super 30 is Bihar’s
free coaching center which helps economically backward students crack the Indian Institute of
Technology-Joint Entrance Examination. This project was started by Anand Kumar and
Abhyanand in 2003 and since then 182 out of total 210 students have made it to ITT.

Every year, about 230,000 students take the exam for a seat in the ITTs but only 5000 grab it.
Last Year, 30 of them came from one coaching center in Patna, capital of Bihar, a 100%
success rate.

                          NY Times Glowing Report- April 10, 2010

Bihar’s turnaround illustrates how a handful of seemingly small changes can yield big results in
India’s most impoverished and badly governed regions. Bihar is a textbook case of how
leadership determines development.

When Mr. Nitish Kumar took over, he found government offices filled with dusty files and
Remington typewriters. It was as if most of the 20th century had passed Bihar by. He tackled
crime first. Next came schools and hospitals. He loosened bureaucratic rules to move
infrastructure projects along more rapidly. However, despite all these spectacular results,
almost no private investment has come into Bihar. Now that Nitish Govt was reelected with
thumping majority, this may change.

                                           BIHAR DIWAS




PATNA: Bihar Diwas, to mark the 99th anniversary of separate statehood status to Bihar, will be
observed from Monday for the first time at official level.

The functions will be held at over 25,000 centers, including schools, across the state and also at
other places in the country and abroad.

Earlier, Bihar was tagged with Bengal and Orissa. First it was separated from Bengal and finally
from Orissa on March 22, 1912. However, the state never observed its foundation day in the past.

At all the functions, the glorious history of the state, its cultural and historical heritage, traditions
and achievements will be highlighted, besides the achievements of the state in recent times. The
main function will be held at Gandhi Maidan where a three-day extravaganza includes colorful
and academic events.

At Gandhi Maidan, replicas of the secretariat, Golghar, Mahabodhi temple and Jal Mandir of
Pawapuri have been made, besides a 12-feet high statue of Lord Buddha. At the entrance, the
replicas of Yakshi and Ashokan Pillar have been installed. Also, replicas of all places of worship,

                   PHILANTHROPIC PROJECTS REPORT
                        Birendra Kumar, Chairman, BJANA Philanthropy
BJANA has selected three philanthropic projects in Bihar and Jharkhand for our common
support. We look forward to expand this with your continuing support.


1. BHARAT VIKASH VIKLANG NIYAS AND HOSPITAL

Located in Pahari, Guljarbagh, Patna, is engaged in providing free of charge artificial limbs
to handicap children throughout Bihar and Jharkhand, since 1999. It holds camps in various
places and serves approximately 1100 children every year. It has recently constructed a
three story building on Gaya- Patna road and construction is ongoing. It also started polio
surgery operation since December, 2008.
It needs fund for an elevator, a mobile van, completion of third floor to set up rehabilitation
center, and annual operating cost.

2. VILLAGE HOPE FOUNDATION SUPPORTS ADIVASHI UTHAN SANGH, SIMDEGA, which is engaged
since 1999, in running a primary school in a tribal village in Jharkhand. The education is focused on
agriculture, horticulture, and organic farming skill that can provide self employment in village.
Currently, it is constructing a brick 2 story building and need fund.

3. Aid India-Eureka Child, which is currently working in 3 Bihar districts: Gaya, Jahanabad, and
Arwal, focused on education (improving reading and science skills) and solar lamp distribution. The
distribution of the Tata-BP solar lamps enable village children to lengthen the study time in the
evenings. Visit www.EurekaChild.org

Reading program for 150 children (budget: Rs 40,000), to improve the reading skills, and solar
electrification of one tola (50 families) (budget: Rs 1000, 000).
We added a new dimension to BJANA, and embarked upon philanthropy for the first time in the history
of BJANA to help and uplift Bihar and Jharkhand needy children. Our search for worthy projects began
in 2007, heeding the call of Bihar Chief Minister given in the 2007 Bihar NRI conference in Patna. We
set the selection criteria: (1) support existing and running projects, (2) projects managed by
dedicated local donors and volunteers, (3) supervised and financed by other fellow NRIs, (40 serving
state wide tribal or rural underprivileged area.

BJANA has supported these philanthropic efforts to help children back home in Bihar and Jharkhand
for last three years (2008 to 2010). BJANA with generous supporters like you has contributed
$15,000 to Bharat Vikash Parishad Viklang Hospital in Patna. BJANA also contributed $2,000 to
Village Hope Foundation, which has been, since 1999, running a primary school in a tribal village
near Simdega, Jharkhand, and $2,500 to Aid India, which provides after school coaching and solar
lamp to needy backward village children in Gaya, Jahanabad and Arwal districts in Bihar.

Time has come to set up a "Bihar Foundation" or “Giving Circle”, to which we all can make
contribution and make grant to deserving institutions in Bihar and Jharkhand. A BJANA patron can
also direct his/her contribution to a worthy cause and/or deserving case through BJANA.

BJANA thanks all the Patrons and contributors, whose support has made this a success.

  • 4. BJANA HOLI & BIHAR DIWAS 2011 History of Bihar Ancient Times The land mass currently known as Bihar is very ancient. The name is derived from “Vihara” – a land of monasteries. Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, Muslim, and Sikh shrines abound in this ancient land. Earliest myths and legends of Hinduism are associated with Bihar. Sita, the Consort of Lord Rama, daughter of King Janak was born in Sitamarhi. The ancient kingdom of Janak called Vidaha consisted of present day districts of Muzaffarpur, Sitamarhi, Samastipur, Madhubany, and Darbhanga. The original author of the Hindu epic – The Ramayana – Maharishi Valmiki lived in Valmikinager, a small town in West Champaran. It was here in Bodhgaya, under a banyan tree, the Bodh tree, that Prince Gautama attained supreme knowledge to become Buddha, the enlightened one. Most of the major events of his life, like enlightenment, last sermon, and nirvana (death) happened in Bihar. The great religion of Buddhism was born here, and Bodhgaya is one of the most important and sacred Buddhist pilgrimage centers in the world. The Lord Mahavira, the founder of Jainism, was born at Vaishali and attained nirvana (death) at Pawapuri, near Rajgir. The tenth and the last guru of the Sikhs, Guru Gobind Singh was born in 1666 in Patna Sahib. A lovely and majestic Gurudwara – the Harmandir, built to commemorate his memory, is one of the holiest places of worship for Sikhs. The ancient kingdom of Magadh and of Licchavis, around 7-8 Century B.C. produced rulers who devised a system of administration that truly is progenitor of the modern art of state-craft and of the linkage of state-craft with economics. Magadh rose to glory during Guptas (4th and 5th centuries A.D.) and produced Kaultilya, the author of Arthashastra, the first treaties of the modern science of Economics and Chanakya, the advisor to the Magadh king, Chandragupta Maurya. Chanakya produced the first Indian treaties on state-craft and politics. Patliputra (ancient name of Patna, the Mauryan capital) was established by King Ajatshatru around 5th century B.C. at the confluence of the rivers Sone and Ganga. The Maurya Emperor Ashok (234-198 B.C) was the first to formulate firm tenets for the government of a people. These edicts inscribed on stone pillars were planted across his kingdom extending to almost all of the undivided India. Ashok was responsible also for the widespread proselytization of people in Buddhism. Nalanda, the world’s first seat of higher learning, a Monastic University was established during the Gupta period and flourished from the 5th to the 11th century. The University had 9 million books and 2000 teachers to impart knowledge to 10,000 students from all over the Buddhist world. Lord Buddha himself taught here and Hieun Tsang, the 7th century Chinese traveler, was a student. Ongoing excavations have uncovered temples, monasteries, lecture halls and charred library burned by Mughal invaders.
  • 5. BJANA HOLI & BIHAR DIWAS 2011 The Khuda Baksh oriental library has rare muslim manuscripts including some from the University of Cordoba, Spain. Medieval Times The glorious history of Bihar lasted until around the 8th century Gupta Period. It was followed up by the Palas of Bengal, who ruled until 1197, when the Mughal period began. In Medieval Times, Bihar lost its prestige as the political and cultural center of India. The Mughal period, which lasted from the 12th to the 17th century, was a period of unremarkable provincial administration from Delhi. The only remarkable person of these times in Bihar was Sher Shah, an Afghan whose rule in the 16th century extended all the way to the Punjab. His mausoleum is located in Sasaram. Modern Times The British acquired Bihar in 1764 in the Battle of Buxar and ruled until India’s independence in 1947. During most of British India, Bihar was a part of the Presidency of Bengal and was governed from Calcutta, dominated by people from Bengal. When separated by the Bengal Presidency in 1912, Bihar and Orissa comprised a single province. Later in 1935, the division of Orissa became a separate province. In 1956 the southeast district of Puralia was incorporated into West Bengal. The state was further bifurcated in 2001, and a new state “Jharkhand” came into existence. It was from Bihar that Mahatma Gandhi launched in 1917, his civil disobedience movement, which ultimately led to India’s independence in 1947. Many people from Bihar became leading participants in India’s struggle for independence. Dr. Rajendra Prasad became the first President of the Republic of India. Jay Prakesh Narayan affectionately called JP, made substantial contributions to modern Indian history until his death in 1979. It was he, who steadfastly and staunchly opposed the autocratic rule of Indira Gandhi. The movement started by JP, however brought the emergency to an end; led to the massive defeat of Indira Gandhi at the poll and restored liberal democracy. In the immediate post-independence period, Bihar saw an economic growth through establishment of new industry and power projects. However, the state has experienced an extreme and progressively escalating decline in the last decade or two, making it the worst administered and the poorest state at the dawn of the new millennium. A new progressive government came into power in November 2005 and has succeeded in reversing the economic and law and order decline of decades, and is poised to make significant economic gain. Bihar’s GDP grew at the rate of 11% during last 4 years, outpacing the India’s average growth. This landlocked state of Bihar is surrounded by Nepal, Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, and comprises three cultural regions – Bhojpur, Mithila, and Magadh. Rivers Kosi and Gandak from the north and Sone from the south join the Ganga. In the fertile plains, rice, sugar cane, oilseeds, maize, jute, barley and wheat are cultivated. The present Bihar is predominantly rural and agricultural.
  • 6. BJANA HOLI & BIHAR DIWAS 2011 Jharkhand, which was carved out in 2000, comprises of Chotanagpur in south surrounded by Bihar, Chattisgarh and Orissa. Damodar river flows through the picturesque plateau and its valley is the Rohr of India. Under its soil, minerals abound. Tourism Jerusalem is a place of religions pilgrimage for believers of three different religions- Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Bihar is the destination of religious tourism for believers of five distinct religions- Buddhism, Islam, Sikhism, Jainism and Hinduism. Recent Events The wall Street Journal reported on May 29, 2010 that India’s GDP grew 7.1% in FYE 3/31/2010, projected to grow 8.5% in FYE 3/31/2011, and is expected to grow at 11% in the future. As against this, Bihar’s growth has been at 11% in last 4 years. Bill Gates visited village Gulria in Khagaria in May 2010 to launch “kala jar” eradication program. In September 2010, Dalai Lama inaugurated “Karuna” stupa in newly created Buddha Park in Patna, near Patna railway station on the site of old Jail. SUPER 30 The Time Magazine named Super 30 in the list of “The Best of Asia 2010”. Super 30 is Bihar’s free coaching center which helps economically backward students crack the Indian Institute of Technology-Joint Entrance Examination. This project was started by Anand Kumar and Abhyanand in 2003 and since then 182 out of total 210 students have made it to ITT. Every year, about 230,000 students take the exam for a seat in the ITTs but only 5000 grab it. Last Year, 30 of them came from one coaching center in Patna, capital of Bihar, a 100% success rate. NY Times Glowing Report- April 10, 2010 Bihar’s turnaround illustrates how a handful of seemingly small changes can yield big results in India’s most impoverished and badly governed regions. Bihar is a textbook case of how leadership determines development. When Mr. Nitish Kumar took over, he found government offices filled with dusty files and Remington typewriters. It was as if most of the 20th century had passed Bihar by. He tackled crime first. Next came schools and hospitals. He loosened bureaucratic rules to move infrastructure projects along more rapidly. However, despite all these spectacular results, almost no private investment has come into Bihar. Now that Nitish Govt was reelected with thumping majority, this may change.
  • 7. BJANA HOLI & BIHAR DIWAS 2011 BIHAR DIWAS PATNA: Bihar Diwas, to mark the 99th anniversary of separate statehood status to Bihar, will be observed from Monday for the first time at official level. The functions will be held at over 25,000 centers, including schools, across the state and also at other places in the country and abroad. Earlier, Bihar was tagged with Bengal and Orissa. First it was separated from Bengal and finally from Orissa on March 22, 1912. However, the state never observed its foundation day in the past. At all the functions, the glorious history of the state, its cultural and historical heritage, traditions and achievements will be highlighted, besides the achievements of the state in recent times. The main function will be held at Gandhi Maidan where a three-day extravaganza includes colorful and academic events. At Gandhi Maidan, replicas of the secretariat, Golghar, Mahabodhi temple and Jal Mandir of Pawapuri have been made, besides a 12-feet high statue of Lord Buddha. At the entrance, the replicas of Yakshi and Ashokan Pillar have been installed. Also, replicas of all places of worship, temple, mosque, gurdwara and church have been installed to attract the visitors.

We look forward to expand this with your continuing support. 1.

It holds camps in various places and serves approximately 1100 children every year. It has recently constructed a three story building on Gaya- Patna road and construction is ongoing. It also started polio surgery operation since December, 2008. It needs fund for an elevator, a mobile van, completion of third floor to set up rehabilitation center, and annual operating cost. 2. VILLAGE HOPE FOUNDATION SUPPORTS ADIVASHI UTHAN SANGH, SIMDEGA, which is engaged since 1999, in running a primary school in a tribal village in Jharkhand. The education is focused on agriculture, horticulture, and organic farming skill that can provide self employment in village. Currently, it is constructing a brick 2 story building and need fund. 3. Aid India-Eureka Child, which is currently working in 3 Bihar districts: Gaya, Jahanabad, and Arwal, focused on education (improving reading and science skills) and solar lamp distribution. The distribution of the Tata-BP solar lamps enable village children to lengthen the study time in the evenings. Visit www.EurekaChild.org Reading program for 150 children (budget: Rs 40,000), to improve the reading skills, and solar electrification of one tola (50 families) (budget: Rs 1000, 000). We added a new dimension to BJANA, and embarked upon philanthropy for the first time in the history of BJANA to help and uplift Bihar and Jharkhand needy children. Our search for worthy projects began in 2007, heeding the call of Bihar Chief Minister given in the 2007 Bihar NRI conference in Patna. We set the selection criteria: (1) support existing and running projects, (2) projects managed by dedicated local donors and volunteers, (3) supervised and financed by other fellow NRIs, (40 serving state wide tribal or rural underprivileged area. BJANA has supported these philanthropic efforts to help children back home in Bihar and Jharkhand for last three years (2008 to 2010). BJANA with generous supporters like you has contributed $15,000 to Bharat Vikash Parishad Viklang Hospital in Patna. BJANA also contributed $2,000 to Village Hope Foundation, which has been, since 1999, running a primary school in a tribal village near Simdega, Jharkhand, and $2,500 to Aid India, which provides after school coaching and solar lamp to needy backward village children in Gaya, Jahanabad and Arwal districts in Bihar. Time has come to set up a "Bihar Foundation" or “Giving Circle”, to which we all can make contribution and make grant to deserving institutions in Bihar and Jharkhand. A BJANA patron can also direct his/her contribution to a worthy cause and/or deserving case through BJANA. BJANA thanks all the Patrons and contributors, whose support has made this a success.
