What was the reason behind
the Separationof Bihar
and Jharkand?
Answers
Answer:
Jharkhand was separated from Bihar in 2000. Various factors propelled for separation : ... Sibu Soren and his party Jharkhand Mukti Morcha led the movement for the division not only for tribal people which were still in minority in Jharkhand but also included the backward class people in the movement.
Jharkhand was separated from Bihar on the same grounds as Nagaland, Mizoram and Meghalaya were separated from Assam. The reason was tribal population. You are a tribal person living in Assam. After the Independence of India, the region became part of Bihar state. There was demand for a separate state by several political organisations in the region and the Bihar Reorganisation Act, 2000 passed in Parliament, giving rise to the new state of Jharkhand. Jharkhand is among the leading states in economic growth. The idea did not become a reality, however, until August 2, 2000, when the Parliament of India passed the Bihar Reorganization Bill to create the state of Jharkhand, carving 18 districts out of Bihar to form Jharkhand state on 15 November 2000. On that day it became the 28th state of India.
