Bihar is located in the eastern part of the country (between 83°-30' to 88°-00' longitude). It is an entirely land–locked state, although the outlet to the sea through the port of Kolkata is not far away. Bihar lies mid-way between the humid West Bengal in the east and the sub humid Uttar Pradesh in the west which provides it with a transitional position in respect of climate, economy and culture. It is bounded by Nepal in the north and by Jharkhand in the south. The Bihar plain is divided into two unequal halves by the river Ganga which flows through the middle from west to east.

As twilight landed, dacoits were the only thing on our minds. Bodhgaya, our base for Nalanda and Rajgir, would still take around two hours, the truckies around us were travelling in convoys, and Topchanchi, the place we were passing through, was densely forested.

We countered the monotony of a dull landscape and a perceived menace by coining arbitrary automobile terms. Patspin – it came from the enormous quantity of cowpats we encountered on the road – was when a car slid its rear wheels on a particularly large bovine discharge. A cataract corner was a blindish bend, not definitively blind, but dangerously tempting. And as we drove on, we also devised strategies to thwart ambushes, assaults, and, with Sac’s gupti by our side, even skirmishes.

We got out to take a closer look, not intending to buy any. The stall owner told us what we already knew – about truck drivers taking them along in case they encountered trouble along the way. “There are no dacoits here; this is our area, but then you never know. A friendly man by day in Bihar can’t be trusted at night,” said the oldish man, wearing a ragged shirt and a brown dhoti.
