History of the village
Bauram was first discovered when India was under the rule of the Mughal Empire by a Jagdeeshpur Siwan's resident, Laung Chaudhary. Initially, he reached what was seen to be a village Asi. Laung Chaudhary's second and third generations discovered the village when they were searching for their cattle's feed, where they found a heap of green grass. They thought about living in the village because it was the place where they can easily build their shelter from the surplus reeds available. They built shacks into colonies which are now known as "gaaon par." Laung Chaudhary was a Hindu before he became a Muslim, and this was the reason beyond the migration from Jagdishpur to Asi.
