3500-Year-Old City Discovery in Mithila Gets ASI Approval has sparked fresh excitement in Bihar. The 3500-Year-Old City Discovery in Mithila received approval from the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) for fresh excavation at Balirajgarh.
Archaeologists will soon begin digging at the historic site in the Madhubani district. Experts believe the ancient settlement dates back nearly 3,500 years. Many scholars link the site to the Ramayana period and the kingdom of King Janak.
Earlier excavations uncovered bricks, pottery, and structural remains. These findings suggest that a well-planned urban settlement once stood there. Researchers now hope to uncover more details about trade, lifestyle, and culture from that era.
Historians say this project could strengthen Mithila’s historical importance. Local authorities also expect the discovery to attract tourists and boost heritage awareness in the region.
