Barh, is a town and subdivision in Patna district of Bihar, India. It is located on the southern bank of the Ganges River, 34 miles (55 km) south-east of Patna, the state capital.
Barh was one of the largest lentil- and pulse-producing regions of India during the British Raj. However in a bizzare decision, most of the agricultural land being used for the pulse production was acquired for setting up of Super Thermal Power unit by NTPC. Situated on the southern bank of the river Ganges, some 60 km east of Patna, the town was a stopover for ships sailing to and from Calcutta, ferrying grains and lentils. The town's name may have derived from the Persian word bargah, which translates as 'twelfth' in English, as Barh's position in the order of such stopovers was twelfth.
The town is low-lying and was frequently flooded by the Ganges before the Bandh Road was constructed. The Hindi word for a flood is barh<More Info
