Is Chhapra about the same city? Is it a valid alternative spelling? RJFJR 02:52, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
Yes , it is commonly missplet as Chapra. If you see official documents. It is mention Chhapra not Chapra. I suggest the name in this article may be changed to Chhapra so that people looking for Chhapra reach this site.
A reference from a site http://www.chhapra-bihar.com/ may kindly be seen to confirm.
'Chhapra ( commonly mis-spelt Chapra or Chupra ) is head-quarter of Saran Division, which consists three districts, Siwan, Gopalganj and Chhapra (called Saran ) . Chhapra , ( Latitude - 25.47° North and Longitude - 84.47° East ) located in low, fertile Gangetic plain, has relatively cool, dry winters and hot summers with 750 mm. to 1350 mm. of rain annually. It is 70 Km. away from Patna , capital of Bihar and situated near the confluence of rivers, the Ganges and Ghaghara .
Gopalganj was a Sub-Division of Old Saran District . It was made separate district on 2nd October,1973 . District Rural Development Authority was established in 1979-80'. --Skr91 11:56, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
