Bihar Diwas: Celebrate With Your Child
India has 29 states, each with cultures, traditions and celebrations of their own. Bihar Diwas, is one such occasion that is celebrated with much gusto and fun fare in the state of Bihar.

Why And When Is Bihar Diwas Celebrated?

Bihar Diwas is celebrated on 22 March to mark Bihar’s formation. On 22 March 1912, the British carved the state of Bihar from the Bengal Presidency when the Governor of Bengal, Thomas Gibson Carmichael split the Presidency into Bihar, Bengal, Orissa and Assam. However, it was only in 2010 that Chief Minister, Nitish Kumar decided to commemorate this day and ever since, the 22nd of March is celebrated as Bihar Diwas in Bihar.
