Tirhut Commission

The Tirhut Commission, formed in 1954, was a major administrative reform initiative in India aimed at enhancing the governance and development of the Tirhut region in Bihar. Its primary focus was to address issues like irrigation, agriculture, and social welfare, improving living standards for local communities. The commission recommended better infrastructure and resource management, which ultimately contributed to the region's economic growth. Named after the Tirhut area, the commission's work laid the groundwork for future development policies in Bihar and helped shape regional planning in India.
