History of administrative districts in Patna Division
Patna Division was established in 1829 as the 11th division of the Bengal Presidency in British India, along with Saran Division and Bhagalpur Division. At the time of its formation, Saran Division comprised the districts of Saran, Champaran, Tirhut, and Shahabad, while Bhagalpur Division included Monghyr, Bhagalpur, Purnea, and Maldah districts. On 1 March 1834, Saran Division was abolished and merged into Patna Division. Following the merger, Patna Division included the districts of Patna, Gaya, Saran, Champaran, and Shahabad. Around the same period, the former Tirhut district was abolished and replaced by the newly created districts of Muzaffarpur and Darbhanga. In 1908, the administrative boundaries of Patna Division were reorganized. A separate Tirhut Division was created from the northern districts of Saran, Champaran, Muzaffarpur, and Darbhanga, while Patna Division was reconstituted with the districts of Patna, Gaya, and Shahabad. After Indian independence, the Government of Bihar created the separate Magadh Division from the Gaya region of Patna Division.
