It is an excellent work and effort by persion who has done this home work and placed an excellent picture of our great district araria. I salute you dear.
We are realy proud to be the part of that town/ district which is most backward in the country but has produced greatest real son of soil Mr.Phanishwer nath Renu.
Though the condition of bihar has improved a lot so as well in araria also with national highway , broad gaze rail tract and improvement in conditions on infrastructure education,heath system and electricity. Thanks to the people for early realisation .Though it will take some time to come up on great indian map with brilliantly translucent light but the effort of every person of the district is required to improve the system.

Dear Harsh and Aryan,
Thanks for your appreciation. Yes it is true that improvement of district is only possible when every person feels their responsibilities and pay attention towards overall development and should utilize their capabilities instead of gossip only.
My best wishes with you and hoping for your bright future.

Oh great!!!!!!!!! Now I have come to know that we had also a great history in past & definitely a good future ahead. Now my birthplace Araria is improving a lot day by day. Since I am away from my town but my heart lives there. My district development gives me immense pleasure, no matter if it is in education, sports or etc extra. Our district will go ahead & ahead, once each & every youngster take an oath to do something for their district. This is our responsibility & we should loyal for this.
Now election is in hand & we, all young blood should teach a lesson to our corrupt leader.
Because I believe in saint Swami Vivekanand saying ” Uthisthat Jagrat aur Prapya Varannibodhat ”
