I think there are many good reasons for Bihar to be reorganized into three smaller states and am especially in favor of a Maithili speaking state in Northern Bihar. The Northern Bihar region is known variously as Tirhut , Mithilanchal and Mithila and seem to form a natural division for reorganization. Tirhut is in the foothills of the Himalayan mountains. Year around, seven rivers supply ample water from the mountains as snow melts. During summer months, the monsoon brings heavy rain to the region.
Rainfall is exceeded only by Assam .
This frequently results in floods over the entire region for up to six months. This surplus of water that is currently highly destructive could be utilized to bring economic development, stability, tourism, industry, improved agriculture output and improved quality of life for every citizen. Water is potentially the colorless gold of India. An Indian government willing to work cooperatively with the government of Nepal could reverse the stagnant situation that exists today. By jointly constructing dams, hydroelectric power plants, irrigation canal systems, and artificial lakes, the economy of the Tarai region of Nepal, Northern Bihar, Eastern UP, West Bengal and Bangladesh would drastically improve.
