Why are Bihar and the UP considered north India by the media?
Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, two of India's most populous states, are often referred to as the 'heartland' of North India by the media. This is because the region is home to a large number of people from diverse cultural backgrounds, and is often seen as the 'gateway' to the rest of the country. The region is also home to some of the most important Hindu pilgrimage sites and the birthplace of Buddhism, making it an important spiritual destination. Additionally, the region is well known for its vibrant culture, cuisine, and music, which have made it a popular tourism destination. These factors have collectively earned Bihar and Uttar Pradesh their place as North India in the media.
