Jahanabad was carved out of old Gaya district on 1st August, 1986. It was a sub-division of the Gaya since 1872. The main aim behind the creation of this district was to accelerate the pace of development in tandem with tackling the problems of extremism, poverty, unemployment and underdevelopment. Jehanabad District has own history from Mughal time. As per book “aine-e-akbari”, place was affected by famine in the 17th century and people were dying of hunger. The Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb, in whose time the book was rewritten, established a Market(Mandi) for relief of the people and named the “Mandi” as “JAHANARA”( Aurangzeb’s Sister). The Mandi was managed under and supervised by Jahanara. She took a good interest in this. After some time the place came to be known as “JAHANABAD” and later as “JEHANABAD”.Its surrounding districts are the district of Patna in north, Gaya in south, Nalanda in east and the newly created district of Arwal in the west.

Historical perspective Barabar or Vanavar, has connections with the Mahabharata period. The great warrior of Mahabharata war, Ashwathama is said to be wandering even today in the valleys of Barabar. He had become immortal with the grace at Lord Sidhnath (Lord Shiva), whose temple(Baba Sidheshwar Nath Temple )exists on the top of the highestmountain of Barabar hills.In ancient times, Barabar was known as “KHALIT PARWAT” or “Nagarjuni parwat”.During Mahabharata (a mythological epic) period, this was known “Gorthagiri” Either because the demon king Vanasur ruled here or because almost all the hills are of same height, this place came to be known as Banavar or Barabar in course of time. The hills have been identified with the Gorathagiri as mentioned in the Mahabharata (a mythological epic) by Jackson who discovered two inscriptions mentioning this name in the hill itself. The other inscriptions in the caves here also refer it as Khalatika and Pravaragiri. Vanasur was the senapati of the king Jarasandh and had constructed a fort on the hills, the remains of which can be seen even today. On the eastern side of Patalganga, Vanasur had also established the new city named “Ram Gaya” on the banks of the Niranjana river known as Falgu now-a-days. The remains of this city have also been found in the forms of bricks and rocks. Fort and Town site are explored by Alexander Cunningham in about 1865.
The Barabar Caves have been selected as one of the 10 sites in Bihar for World Heritage Status.

Some historians believe that this is the place where Lord Buddha meditated for a long period of 12 Years, and from here only he moved along side “Niranjana river” (Falgu) towards Bodh Gaya where he got enlightenment. If this fact can be established through research and survey of the area this place will be of no less importance than Bodhgaya and Sarnath.Near the second Nagarjuna cave constructed by the Mauryan king Dashratha there are ruins, which according to cunningham was a Buddh-Vihar and was demolished by Muslim attackers and made a platform inste.

Dabthu:- It is 6 Kms east of Hulasganj in Jehanabad, Dabthu. It is chiefly known for its finely carved images and ruins of temples of post Gupta Period. A noted scholar and historian FH Hamilton visited Dabthu and adjoining villages in 1811-12. His travelogue contained descriptions of
dilapidated structures of magnificent temples including a jain temple, a mausoleum of a sufi saint and numerous images of Hindu gods and goddesses around the temples. Buchanan also talks of a sprawling earthen mound which is still extant. Now little remains of those shrines and idols as described by hamilton and Buchanan. However, in the remains of ancient shrines one can still see images of deities mutilated and decayed by ravages of time.
This photograph of a Surya sculpture was taken by Thomas Fraser Peppé in 1870 and is part of the collection of Sir Richard Carnac Temple. Descriptive notes by Peppé accompanying the photographs read as follows, ‘This seems to have been the site of a large Buddhist community, and the remains are extensive. There are two temples partly standing. The northern one was dedicated to Surya, and a large figure of the same is still standing inside’.
