Geography

Birpur is primarily divided into two major areas: Birpur Purvi (Birpur East) and Birpur Paschimi (Birpur West). These two areas comprise several smaller blocks or wards known as tolas. The village is surrounded by Rupas Mahaji to the east, Shiv Nagar to the west, Kala Diyara to the south, and the River Ganga to the north. The land near the river Ganga in the north is the main agricultural area. Hajipur serves as the headquarters for this region, with the local Registrar's office located in Mahnar. Birpur is part of the Raghopur Community Development Block. The village is prone to flooding every 4–5 years due to its proximity to the River Ganga, causing significant challenges for the residents. After 70 years of India's independence, Birpur was electrified in 2017.
