Munger, Administrative center in Bihar, India
The city stretches along the southern bank of the Ganges River, encompassing an area of 89 square kilometers at an elevation of 43 meters.
Chandragupta Maurya established Munger as a strategic location, which later became a capital under Nawab Mir Qasim who built an arsenal in 1763.
The Munger Fort spans 222 acres and contains the tomb of Shah Mushk Nafā, reflecting the architectural heritage of multiple Indian dynasties.
Two railway stations, Jamalpur Junction and Munger Railway Station, connect the city to major destinations across Bihar and neighboring states.
The municipal corporation manages 45 administrative seats and implements comprehensive urban development programs across the twin cities of Munger and Jamalpur.
