Dr. Ushakar Jha (13 April 1938-20 June 2006) was a Professor of Political Science. A firm believer in Nehruvian modernity, he was also a deeply religious person with immense humanist zeal for social and moral well-being.

Born and brought up in the village Sarisab-Pahi (Madhubani), Bihar, he completed his intermediate and graduation from Patna College and university degrees from Patna University. An excellent teacher loved by his students and academic fraternity, he spent most of his life in Chandradhari Mithila College and Lalit Narayan Mithila University, Darbhanga as an academician and administrator of repute. A committed intellectual for welfare of the community, Dr. Ushakar Jha possessed catholic taste for readings and collecting books in particular and for his approach to life in general.

He had traveled widely and made presentations as well as chaired sessions at various academic platforms in the field of Political Science including conferences of the International Political Science Association held at Washington D.C. and Paris. He had an open mind that neither hesitated to welcome ideas and nor faltered even once to judge them critically.

Following his retirement, he moved back to his village where he died in 2006.

To celebrate his social commitment and his zeal for promoting young minds, his family members have conceived an idea to start a series of programmes with an aim to pay homage to his spirit and ideas.

Instituted in 2008, Dr। Ushakar Jha Memorial Scholarship is a small initiative in this direction with the objective of promoting young achievers in the field of school education. This annual scholarship is awarded to the student for securing first position in the school, Lakshmishwar Academy, Sarisab-Pahi (Madhubani) in Bihar Secondary School Examination.

Dr. Ushakar Jha was an alumni of Lakshmishwar Academy. We hope that this scholarship will act as a source of inspiration for the future generations of his beloved school and keep his memory alive.

  1. He was really a great person of his times. He was a person of calibre and values. If he had the occasion to stay at his place even for few hours, i remember that, he used to visit almost the entire village even in that short span of time. Such was his social attachment. His departure was a real setback for the village.
