Rajendra Smriti Sangrahalaya

It is a biographical museum related to Dr. Rajendra Prasad and his contributions in his freedom struggle. The simple life of our great leader has affected most. You can learn a great deal about the first President of India. Bihar government should pay attention to the poor maintenance of the Rajendra Smriti Sangrahalya.

Great pleace to avoid rush & enjoy fresh air diring morning

Located behind a large mango orchard, this is a quite place right beside a busy road. It doesn't have many visitors, in a day, usually 2-3 people visit this place. So whenever you come to this place (between 11 AM to 5 PM on weekdays), you will find a calm atmosphere. When Rajendra Babu retired from his presidentship, he came to live here as he had not built any house for himself.

The building which we see today was build using donations from friends and well wishers as Nehru never allotted any residential building for his use. He was a patient of Asthama and doctors advised against living in a house with thatched roof. So through the efforts of J.P. Narayan this building was made. He spent his last three months in this building. Now it serves as a museum for artefacts that were gifted to him and some of his personal belongings.

Rajendra Smriti Sangrahalye is located in Sadaqat Ashram which is in Patna, Bihar, beside the main road of Digha area, on the banks of the River Ganges, almost seven kilometres from the airport. This was one of the residences of Dr. Rajendra Prasad, the first President of India, who lived there after retirement and spent the last days of his life there.

It was established by Mahatma Gandhi in 1921. Spread over 20 acres, ashram's land was donated by his close associate Mulana Mazharul Haque's friend Khairun miyan to the national movement. During the independence movement important meetings between eminent freedom fighters like Brajkishore Prasad, Maulana Mazharul Haque, Dr. Anugrah Narayan Sinha, and Rajendra Prasad took place here. After Independence, Jayaprakash Narayan launched his historic movement during the 1970s from the Sadaqat Ashram.
