About Madhubani:
It is situated in the district of Madhubani, known for its particular art and painting form, which was developed in this region during the 17th century.
The present-day boundary of the constituency was formed after the reorganisation of states in 1976. Before it, Madhubani included the eastern segment of the Lok Sabha constituency. However, after 1976, the eastern segment was carved out to make a new constituency of Jhanjharpur, while the western segment of the constituency was merged with the erstwhile Jainagar Lok Sabha seat. This geographic boundary of the Jainagar district was then renamed as Madhubani. Six Assembly segments comprise this Parliamentary constituency of Madhubani, none of which is reserved for the marginalised sections of society. A total of 4,476,044 people reside in the Madhubani district, according to the 2011 Census of India. The economy of the district, besides agriculture, also depends on the export of merchandise and other products bearing the famous Madhubani motif, which is renowned across the world. However, this district is funded under the government’s special scheme of Backward Regions Grant Fund Programme, as it is economically underdeveloped.
