1.6 Economy: After bifurcation of the old in the new district of Bhojpur and Rohtas the large scale industries generally fell in Rohtas district. There are, however, different types of small & cottage industries other than some agro-based industries located in the district of Bhojpur.

There is an industrial area located at Gidha (Koilwar) spread in 5 an area of 30-40 acres of land under the Bihar Industrial Area Development Authority. A bottling plant of Indane Gas (LPG) is also started in this area.

1.7 Culture & Heritage: Bhojpur district has a close linkage with that of its parent district of Shahabad, which had an old and interesting history. In the pre-historic days also there is evidence of the area being inhabited. The 1961 Census report of Shahabad describes the history of the district in following manner. It is said that Ara, the present headquarters of the district derives its name from the Sanskrit word ‘ARANYA’, which means forest. It suggests that the entire area around modern Ara was heavily forested in old days. According to mythology, sage Vishwamitra, the Guru of , had his ‘Ashram’ somewhere in this region. “The famous Chinese pilgrim, HIEUN- TSANG, who journeyed through the country in the seventh century A.D., paid a visit to Mo-Ho-Solo in Shahabad. This place has been identified with the present village Masarh, 10 k.m. west of Ara on Ara-Buxar road. The Chinese pilgrim found that the inhabitants were all Brahmins who did not respect the law of Buddha. He, therefore, felt disappointed and did not proceed to any other place in the district.”

“Not much is known about the history of the district after the fall of Guptas. In all probability it relapsed into the hands of the aboriginal tribes and came under control of petty chieftains. The most dominant people during this period were Cheros. They ruled over the greater portion of the district. Then came the from Ujjain in the province of Malwa . Raja Bhoj was their king and the term ‘Bhojpur’ now applicable to the area is derived from him.”

The Medieval period history of this district has been described in the following words:

“While encamping at Ara in 1529 after his victory over the rulers, Babar proclaimed his sovereignty over Bihar. In commemoration of this event, the place was called Shahabad, which literally means ‘the city of Emperor‘. This name was later applied to the Sarkar within which Ara was included and eventually toe entire district.”

Akbar, after his accession, includes the district of Shahabad in his empire, though the control was not very tight. ’s General Man Singh, made efforts to organize the revenue administration of the district on a sound footing. But the local chiefs continued to resist. The Rajas of Jagdishpur and Bhojpur defied the Mughals. The Raja of Bhojpur rebelled against Jahangir. His successor Raja Pratap, was done to death by Shahjahan and the Queen was forced to many a Muslim courtier. This finally quiet end the Bhojpur family but stray troubles continued till the last days of Mughals.

After this the District had a very uneventful history till 1857 when Kunwar Singh revolted against the Britishers in6 line with the Mutineers.

Marketing stimulates the aggregate demand thereby enlarges the size of market. Marketing in basic industries, agriculture, mining and plantation industries helps in distribution of output without which there is no possibility of mobilization of goods and services which is the key point for economic growth. These industries are the back bone of economic growth. It also accelerates the process of monetizing the economy which in turn facilitates the transfer of investible resources. It helps in discovery of entrepreneurial talent. Intermediate industrial goods and Semi- industrial products etc. essentially marketed for industrial purpose in order to develop the industrial sector with a view to economic growth. In Export trade and services like tourism and baking marketing plays eminent role in order to grow the economy.
