Aurangabad, nestled in southern Bihar, carries a rich historical legacy. Once part of the ancient Magadh kingdom, it has seen the rule of legendary emperors like Bimbisara, Ajatashatru, Chandragupta Maurya, and Emperor Ashoka. During Sher Shah Suri’s reign, the region became a key part of Rohtas Sirkar. After Mughal rule began, Todar Mal subdued Afghan rebellions here. The town’s name is popularly linked to the Mughal king Aurangzeb, though some historians suggest older names like Gohad or Gohadpur.
