KOCH HAJO: ITIHAS NOHOY JUDHWAKSHETRO
Author: Arup Jyoti Das, Language: Assamese, Category: History & Society, ISBN: 9788195139217 Price: Rs.699/-
The vast Koch Kingdom, which once encompassed present-day North Bengal (both in India and Bangladesh), Lower Assam, and the Garo Hills of Meghalaya, was divided in 1581 AD. Following a rift between King Naranarayan and his nephew Raghudev Narayan, the empire split into two distinct sovereign entities: Kamata (Koch Behar) and Kamrup (Koch Hajo). While Koch Behar has received a fair—if not exhaustive—amount of scholarly attention, the kingdom of Koch Hajo remains largely overlooked. This lack of interest or commitment from historians perhaps stems from the fact that the kingdom lost its independent identity within a very short span of time. During the reign of its second ruler, Parikshit Narayan, the formidable and imperialist Mughal Empire launched a full-scale invasion. Despite the overwhelming odds, the Koch forces bravely resisted the Mughals single-handedly. Even in the absence of their king, the people of Koch Hajo continued a massive war of resistance, recording a bloody history defined by courage, patriotism, and an indomitable thirst for freedom. Thus, the history of Koch Hajo is, fundamentally, a history of warfare. “Koch Hajo: Not History, but a Battlefield” is the first book in this series, covering the period from 1581 AD to 1618 AD. Written primarily using primary sources, this work documents a remarkable chapter of history that has remained largely unpublished in modern Assam. This book serves as an essential guide for anyone wishing to explore the unique history of Lower Assam and wish to understand the scale and impact of the largest resistance war in Northeast India.
