Patna division

Patna Division is an administrative region in Bihar encompassing six districts that together form a large territorial area. The region serves as an important administrative center with various towns and rural communities spread throughout its landscape.

The division was established in 1829 during British rule as a key administrative unit. It has undergone structural changes over the decades and continues to shape the region's governance framework today.

Each district within Patna Division maintains distinct traditions, with Hindi and Urdu serving as primary languages across the region's 1,395 villages.

The region is well connected by road and rail networks linking the main towns throughout the division. Visitors exploring the area should plan journeys between towns in advance, as distances are considerable and transportation between districts takes time.

The Loknayak Jayaprakash Narayan Bridge connects vital locations within the division, strengthening transportation networks across the territories.
