BIHAR WILL ROCK ONE DAY...

BIHAR


Bihar MapBihar : The name 'Bihar' is derived from 'Vihara', which means a Buddhist monestry. The land of pilgrim - Bihar has a very ancient, glorious and colorful history. It also boasts of having established the 1st republic of the world. It was this land which gave the world the great religion of Buddhism. It is the land where Buddha attained enlightenment, Lord Mahavira was born and died. Here the 10th and the last Sikh Guru Govind Singh was born. The land was also the birthplace of the great emperor Ashoka, who made himself immortal by spreading the message of peace. 

The land has seen great dynasties such as the Kushans, the Mauryas and the Gupta Dynasty. Great rulers like Chandragupta Maurya, emperor Ashoka and Chandragupta Vikramaditya have brought both fame and glory to the region. It is also the home of many aboriginal tribes. This state has made all round developments in the field of heavy industry and agriculture but at the same time preserved its rich heritage and culture.
