To commemorate Bihar&#8217;s separation from Bengal Presidency in 1912<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Bihar Diwas is celebrated on March 22 every year to commemorate the separation of Bihar from the Bengal Presidency in 1912. The day is a public holiday in Bihar and is marked with various cultural and educational events.<\/p>\n<p>Bihar was a part of the Bengal Presidency from the time of the British East India Company until 1912. In 1912, the British government decided to partition Bengal into two provinces, Bihar and Orissa, and Bengal. The partition was done to appease the growing Hindu nationalist movement in Bengal.<\/p>\n<p>The partition of Bengal was a controversial decision and was met with protests from both Hindus and Muslims.

However, Bihar was not created on March 22, 1956.<\/li>\n<li>Option B: Bihar was carved out of United Provinces on this day in 1873. This is incorrect because Bihar was not carved out of United Provinces on March 22, 1873. Bihar was a part of the Bengal Presidency from the time of the British East India Company until 1912. In 1912, the British government decided to partition Bengal into two provinces, Bihar and Orissa, and Bengal. The partition was done to appease the growing Hindu nationalist movement in Bengal.<\/li>\n<li>Option C: To commemorate Bihar&#8217;s separation from Bengal Presidency in 1912. This is the correct answer. Bihar Diwas is celebrated on March 22 every year to commemorate the separation of Bihar from the Bengal Presidency in 1912. The day is a public holiday in Bihar and is marked with various cultural and educational events.<\/li>\n<li>Option D: To celebrate naming of Bihar in 12th century by Muslim rulers.
