==Freedom movement==
[[File:Historic Bihar Image from Archives 1950-PM Pandit Nehru,President Rajendra Prasad, Anugraha Narayan Sinha,SK Singh.jpg|thumb|left|(LtoR)[[Rajendra Prasad]], [[Jawaharlal Nehru]], Anugrah Narayan Sinha and [[Sri Krishna Sinha]] at Anugrah Babu's residence]]

In 1917, heeding the call of [[Mahatma Gandhi]] to the nation, he left his flourishing law practice to join the [[Champaran]] Satyagraha movement.<ref name=aicc/><ref name="books.google.co.in"/> The Champaran experiment formed a vital chapter in the development of the [[Gandhian]] method in India and he was catapulted to the national stage. He served as a teacher in Bihar Vidyapeeth<ref name="books.google.co.in"/> founded by Dr. [[Rajendra Prasad]] for motivating young meritorious youths. Among<ref name=kamat/> his first students was young [[Jayprakash Narayan]]. In 1922 he organized the Gaya [[Indian National Congress|Congress]]. In the following year he became one of the General Secretaries of the All India Congress Committee (AICC). When Rajendra Prasad was elected Chairman of Patna Municipality, Dr. Anugraha Narayan Sinha was elected Vice-Chairman. As he was soon elected Chairman of the Gaya District Board, he resigned. He was the pivotal force behind the Civil Disobedience Movement led by M K Gandhi, in the year 1930 which is considered an important milestone in the history of Indian Nationalism.<ref name="indianpost.com"/>

His patriotism earned him 15 months of rigorous imprisonment in 1933–34. When the M8 [[1934 Nepal–Bihar earthquake|Nepal–Bihar earthquake]] occurred on 15 January 1934, Bihar Central Relief Committee was set up on 17 January 1934, under the Presidency of Dr. Rajendra Prasad and Dr. Anugraha Narayan Sinha became its Vice-President. He took the task of raising funds to help the people and the relief and rehabilitation work was organised in an elaborate and efficient manner. He was elected as a member of the Central Council in 1935 from Sahabad-cum-Patna Constituency with a massive margin. He became a member of the [[Bihar Legislative Assembly]] in 1936. In the provincial autonomy granted by British, under the [[Government of India Act 1935|Government of India Act]] of 1935, the first Congress ministry was sworn in on 20 July 1937 and he became the Deputy Premier cum [[Finance Minister]] of [[Bihar]] province. He and Premier Dr. [[Sri Krishna Sinha]] disagreed with the then Governor [[Maurice Garnier Hallett]] on the issue of the release of political prisoners and both resigned. The Governor had to give in and they again resumed their offices. But they again resigned in 1939, as did all Congress governments in the country, over the question of involving India in the Second World War without the consent of the Indian people.<ref name="books.google.co.in"/><ref name=kamat/>

He was among the first<ref name="indianpost.com"/> freedom fighters to respond to Gandhiji's call for [[Satyagraha]] in 1940–41.
He was arrested<ref name="books.google.co.in"/> by the British authorities and imprisoned in the Hazaribagh Central Jail in 1942.
In 1944 he was released and devoted himself to serving the epidemic-ridden people.

After independence he dedicated himself to the all round development of Bihar as [[Finance Minister]] and as the [[Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar]].<ref name="indianpost.com"/>

==Exemplary government==
The first Bihar Government, both in 1937 and 1946, was characterized by the values of the [[Mahatma Gandhi]]. Its two eminent leaders [[Shri Krishna Sinha]] and Anugrah Babu were nationalists of unimpeachable integrity and great public spirit. They ran an exemplary government in Bihar.<ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.indiarightsonline.com/Sabrang/india7.nsf/7215f99d277175f3e5257713005df697/43f22a268865987a652570de007d9457?OpenDocument|title=CHANGE IN BIHAR: The Better Man Has Won (Editorial)|date=20 December 2005|work=The Statesman|location=India|author=S.

It included several river valley projects right from Koshi, Aghaur and Sakri to other such river projects. The first five-year plan period was given to the development in rural development works mainly in the agricultural sector.
In fact, Bihar became the top state in the country's first five-year plan and it was announced by Dr. A. N. Sinha in the assembly. The then [[Prime Minister of India]] [[Jawaharlal Nehru]] sent [[Paul H. Appleby]] to assess the administration in states and in his famous report, he described Bihar as the best governed state in India mostly due to the excellent leadership of Dr. [[Shri Krishna Sinha]] and Dr. Anugrah Narayan Sinha.<ref name=patna/>

Since the second five-year plan period, Anugrah Babu spearheaded the process of rapid industrialization of Bihar and bought several industries for the all round development of the state. He served India's international interests. He successfully led the Indian Food and Agriculture delegation to Nepal and also the Indian delegation to the [[International Labour Organization]] (ILO) in [[Canada]] and [[Switzerland]].
He also actively led a number of Government and voluntary organizations in India and abroad.<ref name="indianpost.com"/>
