History

Parbatta Subdistrict was a part of Bhagalpur before 1874. In June 1874, Pargana Parbatta along with Sakhrabadi, Darra, Singhaul and Kharagpur were transferred from Bhagalpur to Munger, together with tappas Lowdah and Simrawan and 281 villages from parganas Sahuri and Lakhanpur. Later on May 10, 1981, when Khagaria was separated from Munger, it became a part of Khagaria as a Subdistrict/CD Block.
