BIHAR – Fact File
BIHAR STATE BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION CORPORATION LIMITED
Bihar lies mid-way between the humid West Bengal in the east and the sub humid Uttar Pradesh in the west which provides it with a transitional position in respect of climate, economy and culture. It is bounded by Nepal in the north and by Jharkhand in the south. The Bihar plain is divided into two unequal halves by the river Ganga which flows through the middle from west to east.
The topography of Bihar can be easily described as fertile alluvial plain occupying the northern part of the state - the Gangetic Valley.
The northern plain extends from the foothills of the Himalayas in the north to a few miles south of the river Ganges as it flows through the State from the west to the east traversing almost 450 Kms..
Bihar has a diverse climate. Its temperature is subtropical in general, with hot summers and cool winters.
Bihar is a vast stretch of fertile plain.

A lot of rivers cut across the state. These rivers have smaller streams which traverses most part of the state
The population is widespread with small villages
Constant flood inundation leaves the bridges as only means of communication
