The concept of writing the topic "Ancient Mithila University" was developed by Santosh Chaudhary, a Post Graduate in Physics from Nalanda Open University, Patna, India.

Chaudhary was inspired to write about the Ancient Mithila University after finding a question about it on the UPSC's Civil Services Examination question paper. He realized that there was a lack of awareness about this important ancient Indian university, and he wanted to write a book to share its history and stories.

Initially he created an article "Ancient Mithila University" at Wikipedia after that he wrote his own first book "Ancient Mithila University". Chaudhary's book, "Ancient Mithila University", was published in 2023. It is a comprehensive and informative account of the university, covering its history, academics, culture, and legacy.

He has written about the existence of the "Ancient Mithila University" from the period of the King Janaka to the 20th century.

The Ancient Mithila University was a major center of learning in India from the 12th/13th to 15th century CE. It was particularly famous for its studies in Nyaya Shastra, or Logic. The university attracted students from all over India and the world, and its graduates went on to become some of the most influential scholars and philosophers of their time.

Chaudhary's book is an important contribution to the study of ancient Indian education and culture. It helps to raise awareness of the Ancient Mithila University and its significant contributions to Indian civilization.
