Tekari is a city and a municipality in Gaya district in the Indian state of Bihar and was the centre of erstwhile Tekari Raj. Shri Gopalsaran was the Zamindar of this area in British times. The fort is still there. It is a place of tourist's interest.

History

In South Bihar, the representative of several communities was the Tekari family, whose estate, Tekari Raj, in Gaya, dates back to the early 18th century.[1]

In the Mughal period, Tekari evolved as a rich estate, protected by Bhumihar Zamindars, who were a part of the Mughal Empire.

Maharaja Hit Narayan Singh of Tekari was said to have been "a man of a religious turn of mind... who became an ascetic and left his vast property in the hands of his wife" shortly after inheriting a lion's share of the estate in the 1840s.[2]
