Daudnagar town is Subdivisional Headquarter of Daudnagar sub-division in Aurangabad district in the state of Bihar, India under the Magadh division. Until 1991, there was only one Sub-division in the Aurangabad district: Aurangabad Sadar. On March 31, 1991, one other Sub-Division, Daudnagar, was created. Daudnagar is a 200-year-old historical city[1] and its living proof is Daudnagar has old historical fort,[2] situated on the eastern bank of the Son River. National Highway NH139 which connects Jharkhand's Palamu district to Patna, passes through the town. Daudnagar was founded by Daud Khan. The area between Daudnagar and Aurangabad assumed great strategic importance when Daud Khan, Aurangzeb's Subedar in Bihar, marched against the Raja of Palamu. As a mark of victory against the Raja in the year 1664 Daud Khan founded the city of Daudnagar.[3] The surrounding area was also granted to him as a Jagir by the emperor. Early in the 18th century, Buchanan saw it as a flourishing town with cloth and opium factories. The sarai, built by Daud Khan was possibly intended to serve as a stronghold, as it was well-fortified with a battlemented wall, two large gates and a surrounding moat. In the outlying part of the town, called Ahmadganj, lies the tomb of Ahmad Khan.Laxmi Bhawan Anant Nagar Daudnagar
