Summary
On the banks of the sacred Ganges…
where the river curves gently through the plains of North India…
stands a city that has seen empires rise and fall, religions born, and revolutions begin.
This is Patna — once called Pataliputra — a city older than Rome, Athens, or even Beijing.
A city that has lived through 2,500 years of history… and yet, today, it finds itself standing at the edge of something new — a future uncertain, but full of possibility.
