Famous personalities of Dalsinghsarai

Vidyapati

Most Famous Maithili Poet. 

Vidyapatinagar, a place very near to the town, is believed to be the place where the renowned poet breathed his last in search of Lord Shiva. As the myth goes, Lord Shiva was associated with him since long in the guise of his servant named Ugna. It is said that he wanted to breath his last at the banks of Ganges and was travelling towards it. But due to his failing health, he was not able to reach the banks of Ganges and so the river changed its course to reach him. There is a big old temple of Lord Shiva known as Vidyapati Dham in commemoration of this great poet and devotee.
