Madhepura is a city and a municipality in Madhepura district in the Indian state of Bihar. Madhepura district as it stands now was carved out of Saharsa district and got the status of revenue district on 9 May 1981. Prior to that, Madhepura was a sub-division under Bhagalpur district with effect from 3 September 1845. Subsequently, it was on 1 April 1954 that Saharsa district was carved out of Bhagalpur district.
The history of Madhepura can be traced back to the reign of Kushan Dynasty of Ancient India. The "Bhant" communities living in villages of Basantpur and Raibhir under Shankarpur block are the descendants of the Kushan Dynasty. Madhepura was then part of Maurya Dynasty, a fact asserted by the Mauryan pillar at Uda-kishunganj. The name Madhepura is believed to have evolved from Gangapur - a village named after Gangadeo, the grandson of King Mithi, who is said to have established the state of Mithila.
