Purnea Introduction
DISTRICT PROFILE PURNEA INTRODUCTION Purnea district is one of the thirty-eight administrative districts of Bihar state. Purnea district is a part of Purnea division. Purnea is bounded by the districts of Araria, Katihar, Bhagalpur, Kishanganj, Madhepura and Saharsa and district of West Dinajpur of West Bengal. The major rivers flowing through Purnea are Kosi, Mahananda, Suwara Kali, Koli and Panar. Purnea district extends northwards from river Ganges. Purnia has seen three districts partitioned off from its territory: Katihar in 1976, and Araria and Kishanganj in 1990. Purnea with its highest rainfall in Bihar and its moderate climate has earned the soubriquet of 'Poor's man's Darjeeling’. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND Purnea has a rich history and a glorious past. It is believed that the name Purnea originates either from the Goddess Puran Devi (Kali) or from Purain meaning Lotus. The earliest inhabitants of Purnea were Anas and Pundras. In the epics, the Anas are grouped with the Bengal tribes and were the eastern most tribes known to the Aryans during the period of Atharva Samhita while the Pundras, although they had Aryan blood were regarded as degraded class of people in the Aitarya Brahmana, Mahabharata and Manu Samhita, because they neglected the performance of sacred rites. According to the legend of Mahabharata, Biratnagar which gave shelter to the five Pandava brothers during their one year incognito exile, is said to be located in Purnea. During the Mughal rule, Purnea was a military frontier province under the command of a Faujdar. The revenue from this outlying province was spent on the maintenance of troops for protecting the borders against tribes from the north and east. -

Transformation of the Rural Society of North Bengal Especially in Malda and West Dinajpur
INTRODUCTION Topographically, India may be divided into four well-marked parts1- i) The Himalayan ii) The Indo-Gangetic plain iii) The Deccan Table land iv) The Coastal plains. North Bengal is related with the Himalayan and Indo-Gangetic plain and Darjeeling district is under the Himalayan region. Northern part of Jalpaiguri and Coocbehar district were under the Himalayan region, while Malda, West Dinajpur and southern part of Jalpaiguri i.e. Duars belongs to Indo-Gangetic plain. North Bengal bears distinct features in the socio-economic structure of the geo-political atlas of India. The oldest reference of the name „Malda‟ is found in an inscription at the tomb of Pir Sahagada dated August 4, 1455 during the reign of Nasir-ud-din Muhammad Shah.2 Malda is the southernmost of the northern Bengal districts. It came under the British administration with the acquisition of Diwani by the East India Company in 1765. The district of Malda did not exist as a separate entity at that time, because Malda got the official recognition as a district in the year 1813. It should be noted that in 1816, four police stations of Purnia, two police stations of Dinajpur and three police stations of Rajshahi were added to form the Malda district which was under the supervision of a Joint Magistrate 3 (order of Governor, 25 April, 1815). At the time of its formation, the district was placed under the charge of a Joint Magistrate and Deputy Collector (Mr. Braddon).4 In 1832, for the first time, a treasury was established in Englishbazar and from that very year the separate entity of the district of Malda was recognized. -
Bihar: What Went Wrong? and What Changed? Arnab Mukherji
Bihar: What Went Wrong? And What Changed? Arnab Mukherji and Anjan Mukherji Working Paper No. 2012-107 September 2012 National Institute of Public Finance and Policy New Delhi http://www.nipfp.org.in 1 DRAFT Bihar: What went wrong? And what changed? Arnab Mukherji1 and Anjan Mukherji2,3 Economy in Historical Perspective Bihar as a political entity, either as a kingdom, or as a state within the republic of India, has its own identity from the time written records were available (Thapar 1966; Rangarajan 1992). Noted historian, Romila Thapar, describes the history of ancient India as the history of ancient Bihar. Many achievements that India became renowned for, in education, governance, society, or religion, have their roots in Bihar. Significant achievements of Bihar in trade and economic engagement within the state and outside of the Indian sub-continent emerge from a past that appears to have left no living legacy in today’s Bihar--a past so alien as to be either simply forgotten or treated as being completely incredible.4 A more recognizable, if rather dramatic picture of Bihar is that seen in a 2010 article on change in the state: 1Assistant Professor, Center for Public Policy, Indian Institute of Management Bangalore. 2Jawaharlal Nehru National Fellow, National Institute of Public Finance and Policy, New Delhi, and Country Director, IGC India-Bihar Program. 3Acknowledgements: Presented at the National Institute of Public Finance and Policy-Columbia University conference on “Growth, Poverty and Human Development in Indian States: Selected Issues” on August 7-8 at the India International Centre, New Delhi.

Araria Introduction
DISTRICT PROFILE ARARIA INTRODUCTION Araria, which was earlier a sub-division of Purina, became a full-fledged district on January 14, 1990, after the division of Purnia into three districts, namely Purnia, Araria and Kishanganj. This showery district of north-eastern Bihar is one of the most backward districts of Bihar, standing at the bottom of the 90 minority concentration districts. Borders of Araria are surrounded by Nepal in northern side, Kishanganj in eastern side and Supaul at western side. District border is adjacent to border of Nepal, so the district is important in terms of security. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND The territory of the present-day district became Araria sub-division of the erstwhile Purnia district in 1964. In ancient times Araria was ruled by three important clans of Indian history. The important tribe of Kiratas governed the northern side, while the eastern side was under the Pundras and area west of the river Kosi, at that time flowing somewhere near the present Araria, by Angas. During the Mauryan period this area formed the part of the Mauryan Empire and according to Asokavadana the Emperor Asoka put to death many naked heretics of this area who had done despite to the Budhist religion. In the 6th century A.D. the area south of the Himalayan pilgrim center of Varaha Kshetra, namely the Gupta kings Budhgupta and Devagupta gave Koti-varsha for the maintenance of the said pilgrim centre. In the first war of independence of 1857 Araria also witnessed a few skirmishes between the mutineers and the commissioner Yule’s forces, which took place near Nathpur. -
