First Spring Census in India – Bihar Findings
• India conducted its first nationwide spring census/survey; Bihar also carried out the survey under this initiative.
• Bihar identified 53 natural springs during the survey.
• More than half of the springs were found in Bihar’s Rohtas district.
• District-wise count: Rohtas (29), Munger (16), Jamui (4), Kaimur (3), Nawada (1).
• Springs mainly originate from hill aquifers, rock fissures, groundwater seepage, rivers, streams, and rainwater recharge.
• Several “hanging springs” were identified in Bihar.
• Springs are important for groundwater recharge, sustaining river flow, irrigation, ecology, and local livelihoods.
• Spring mapping also helps in geomorphological studies and scientific water-resource management.

• A “Hung Assembly” occurs when no political party or pre-poll alliance secures the minimum majority required to form the government.
• Constitutional Basis:
• Article 164(1)—> Chief Minister is appointed by the Governor.
• Article 164(2) —> Council of Ministers is collectively responsible to the Legislative Assembly.
• Constitution does not explicitly prescribe the procedure for inviting a party in a hung assembly —> Governor acts through constitutional discretion and conventions.
• Governor’s broad order of preference (as evolved through conventions & commissions):
1. Single largest party with support to prove majority
2. Pre-poll alliance commanding majority
3. Post-poll alliance/coalition
4. Floor test in Assembly if uncertainty continues
