Jata Shankar Jha: A Historian Who Was Simplicity Personified He was a professional historian looking for, and into, primary evidence, making the sharpest possible analysis. Jata Shankar Jha (August 22, 1926-February 4, 2021). History08/Feb/2021 February 4, 2021 claimed two great historians. Both were from different villages of Madhubani district in Bihar, both educated from Patna, both with the surname Jha. They were Jata Shankar Jha and Dwijendra Narayan Jha (1940-2021). Jata Shankar Jha did not teach at a university. He was with the KP Jaiswal Research Institute (KPJRI) Patna, from where he retired in 1984, having also served as its director. He did not write a textbook, nor did he intervene in certain contentious issues which needed a historian’s intervention. He did not belong, to the best of my knowledge, to any ideologically motivated groups or factions.
