A request to all the fellow Wikipedians interested in the development of contents of this page: I shall be adding (say, by end-April/ early-May 2006) some more contents to this page. If some one may add a map and picture/s, the page shall become better. Thanks. --Bhadani 12:26, 15 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is the headquarters spelled Chhapra or Chapra? RJFJR 02:47, 4 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Possible copyright violation

Most of this article is copied from the a page at the official website for the Saran Division. The homepage of the site doesn't appear to have a copyright statement on it, but says at the bottom, "Web Site design, Developed & Hosted By National Informatics Centre,Saran,Chapra,Bihar-841301". I don't know the copyright status of governmental websites in India. Perhaps someone else can look into this? - dcljr (talk) 18:32, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for finding this. NIC material is not usable. While it can be reproduced, it cannot be modified and prior permission must be sought. See [1]. I'm investigating the article now to see what further steps are necessary. --Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 12:40, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Saran district

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Saran district's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Language":

From Siwan district: 2011 Census of India, Population By Mother Tongue
From Vaishali district: "C-16 Population By Mother Tongue". censusindia.gov.in.
From East Champaran district: "C-16 Population By Mother Tongue". censusindia.gov.in. Retrieved 30 January 2021.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 08:13, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Saran State

Saran State was ruled by the Bais Dynasty. It was the part of Raj Baiswada Empire, present day in Uttar Pradesh having its parts in Bihar also. It was established by Bais Kshatriya who migrated from the Vaishali or Vajjika Republic between 400B.C. to 200B.C.. The capital of Saran was the Sonpur city.
