    The region consists of parts of eastern U.P and Bihar located along the Ganges fertile agriculture belt. Bihar is a state in eastern India It is the 12th largest state in terms of geographical size of 38,202 sq. m (99,200 km²) and 3rd largest by population. Close to 85% of the population lives in villages. Almost 58% of population is below the age of 25, which is the highest proportion in India. Bihar is a vast stretch of fertile plain. It is drained by the Ganges River, including its northern tributaries Gandak and Koshi, originating in the Himalayas and the Bagmati originating in the Kathmandu Valley that regularly flood parts of the Bihar plains. It is well recognized that the South and the West are the engines of growth, along with the region in and around Delhi. The North and the East, with the exception of West Bengal are in dire straits, though considerable potential exists in the fertile Gangetic plains. Bihar lies mid-way between the humid West Bengal in the east and the sub humid Uttar Pradesh in the west which provides it with a transitional position in respect of climate, economy and culture. It is bounded by the country of Nepal to the north and by Jharkhand to the south. The Bihar plain is divided into two parts by the river Ganges which flows through the middle from west to east. It is often quoted as a state with enormous opportunity and potential, though it has remained in dormancy for the past decade.…
