History
The
medical
college
was
constructed
with
the
efforts
of
King
Rameshwar
Singh
of
Khandavala
Dynasty
who
also
built
the
beautiful
Raj
Nagar
Palace
in
Madhubani.
According
to
the
incidence,
the
Prince
of
Wales,
also
called
Edward
VIII,
came
to
Bihar
in
1925.
Darbhanga
Maharaj
Rameshwar
Singh
requested
him
to
visit
a
medical
school
at
Patna
named
‘Temple
of
Medical
Learning’.
The
Prince,
who
subsequently
became
King
Edward
VIII,
was
very
impressed
by
working
of
the
medical
school.
On
behalf
of
the
British
government,
he
offered
to
the
Maharaja
to
upgrade
the
medical
school
into
a
new
college
for
medicine.
The
older,
‘Temple
of
Medical
Learning’
was
decided
to
be
shifted
somewhere
else
in
Bihar.
According
to
old
folks,
the
‘Temple
of
Medical
Learning’,
was
earlier
decided
to
be
transferred
to,
Muzaffarpur.
The
twist
in
the
tale
comes
here!
The
maharaja
accepted
the
shifting
of
medical
school
but
proposed
its
setup
at
Darbhanga.
Eventually,
his
wish
was
fulfilled
and,
paved
the
way
for
the
medical
College
in
the
city.
The
Raj
family
donated
300
acres
of
prime
land
in
the
middle,
of
the
twin
city
of
Darbhanga-Laheriasarai
along
with
Rs
6
lakh
for
setting
up
and
expansion
the
Medical
College.
Initially,
the
medical
college
was
located,
inside
today's
police
hospital
situated
near
Lohia
Chowk
of
the
city.
Before
a
start,
the
king
had
to
deposit
an
amount
of
Rs
25,000
to
the
British
to
shift
the
medical
college.
After
the
king,
his
son Kameshwar
Singh
upgraded
and
renamed
the
‘Temple
of
Medical
Learning’
to
Darbhanga
Medical
College in
1946.
