History

Samastipur became a district in 1972 when it was split from Darbhanga district.[5]

Samastipur consists of four sub-divisions:

  1. Rosera
  2. Samastipur
  3. Dalsinghsarai
  4. Shahpur Patori

Historically, the Samastipur district has been dominated by Koeri, Yadav and Dusadh castes. There is also a sizeable presence of Bhumihars in some of the regions, but they wield less political influence, as they are not united politically. For this reason, most of the total ten assembly constituencies falling in this district has been dominated by Koeris. The two Lok Sabha constituencies, which are part of this district are also dominated by Koeris and Dusadhs. It has been recorded that in this district, the Koeri and Bhumihar castes are indulged in criminality, as they are politically strong. [6]
