Patna, International Nalanda University has been established in Rajgir with a view to reestablishing ancient Nalanda as a knowledge center. This modern structure based on the architecture of ancient Nalanda University depicts the concept of Sariputra Stupa, Gopuram entrance and traditional veranda. With these structures built from the point of view of environmental protection, this university has been established as a carbon neutral and Net Zero campus.
The newly constructed Nalanda University was inaugurated by the Prime Minister of India in the presence of the Chief Minister of Bihar on 19.06.2024. In order to realize the concept of development with heritage, the Bihar government has also established Rajgir Sports Complex and Bihar Sports University in Nalanda. This year, Bihar Women's Asian Champions Trophy was successfully organized at Rajgir Sports Complex, which was highly appreciated at the national and international level.
Through the tableau, the Bihar government has tried to show the ancient heritage of Gyanbhoomi Nalanda and the efforts being made by the state government for its preservation. Along with this, the effort to re-establish Bihar on the global map of education through the establishment of Nalanda University has been shown. Apart from this, the unique effort of the Bihar government to develop the Ghodha Katora Lake as an eco-tourism site with the supernatural and grand statue of Lord Buddha has also been shown.
