Bihar is one of the least urbanised states of India. Although, the state is performing better in development indicators including growth rate, in urban development graph, when compared with other states, it is trailing behind. The paper endeavours to understand the process of urbanisation in Bihar based on two criteria of development, i.e., modern facilities and human development. Urbanisation in the state has been found more in southern region. Practically, Patna is the only urban district of the state. Thus, Bihar needs progressive urban development policy to promote urbanisation in other districts. This can be achieved through monitoring and improvement of basic human development indicators and modern urban facilities.
