Mithila Rising

The book recounts the glorious past of Mithila and empirically traces the withering of the Industry and Agriculture activities from the region and discusses about the scope of Industrial and Agricultural activity which can be carried out in the region. The sustained neglect by the political dispensation compels the author of the book to plead for a separate state of Mithila which could be carved out from the existing state of Bihar for the betterment of the region and which would also contribute in the development of the nation.
