Patna division, Administrative division in Bihar, India
The Patna Division extends over 16,960 square kilometers and includes six districts: Patna, Nalanda, Bhojpur, Rohtas, Buxar, and Kaimur districts in Bihar.
The division originated in 1829 during British India as one of three Commissionerships, later absorbing Saran Division in 1834 and undergoing structural modifications in 1855.
Each district within Patna Division maintains distinct traditions, with Hindi and Urdu serving as primary languages across the region's 1,395 villages.
The Divisional Commissioner Office operates from Sher Shah Suri Tomb in Sasaram, managing administrative functions for a population of over 17 million inhabitants.
The Loknayak Jayaprakash Narayan Bridge connects vital locations within the division, strengthening transportation networks across the territories.
