Assam History

The Ahoms signed the treaty with Mughal commander Mir Jumla in January 1663. The agreement ended the immediate phase of the Mughal occupation.

The treaty was concluded between Ahom ruler Jayadhwaj Singha and Mughal commander Mir Jumla. It followed the 1662–63 Mughal campaign.

The source identifies Rahmat Banu Begum as Jayadhwaj Singha's only daughter. She became part of the Mughal-Ahom diplomatic settlement after the Ghiladhari treaty.

The Treaty of Ghiladhari Ghat required Jayadhwaj Singha to send his daughter as part of the settlement. This illustrates the political and diplomatic costs imposed after Mir Jumla's invasion.

She was Ramani Gabharu, also known as Rahmat Banu Begum. Her marriage into the Mughal imperial family formed part of the post-war settlement.

The Treaty of Ghiladhari Ghat, signed on 23 January 1663, ended Mir Jumla's occupation of Garhgaon. It imposed heavy terms on the Ahom kingdom.

The source gives 1669 for the Battle of Alaboi. It was fought between the Ahom and Mughal forces during the period preceding the Battle of Saraighat.

The Battle of Alaboi occurred during the reign of Chakradhwaj Singha. The conflict formed part of the Ahom effort to recover Guwahati from Mughal control.

The Battle of Alaboi was fought between the Ahom (Assamese) and Mughal forces. The Ahom side later achieved a decisive victory at Saraighat in 1671.

The source attributes the establishment of the Dhubri Gurudwara to Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib in 1669. Dhubri is therefore an important site in Sikh heritage in Assam.

Chakradhwaj Singha appointed Lachit Borphukan to lead the Ahom forces against the Mughals. Lachit's leadership culminated in the Ahom victory at Saraighat.

The Battle of Saraighat was fought in 1671. It was a major Ahom victory over the Mughal forces led by Raja Ram Singh I.

The source identifies Mahapadma Nanda as the 'Second Parshuram'. He was the first great emperor of the Nanda dynasty and is associated with the expansion of Magadha.

The three jewels (Ratnatraya) are central to Jainism: right faith, right knowledge and right conduct. They are part of the path toward liberation.

The source associates Muhammad Ghori's first defeat with Raja Bhima II of Gujarat in the Battle of Kayadara near Mount Abu. Ghori later defeated Prithviraj Chauhan at the Second Battle of Tarain in 1192.

Babur wrote the Baburnama (Tuzuk-i-Baburi), an important memoir and source for early Mughal history. It was originally written mainly in Chagatai Turkish.

The Bengal Sati Regulation, 1829 was passed under Lord William Bentinck. It declared the practice of sati illegal and punishable in territories under British administration.

Zamindari Association was established in 1838 and was soon known as the Landholders' Society. It represented the interests of landed groups in Bengal.

Software is a footloose industry because it is less dependent on bulky raw materials or a specific resource location. Information technology can therefore locate in many urban centres.

The Ten Degree Channel separates the Andaman group from the Nicobar group in the Bay of Bengal. It lies roughly along the 10° N latitude.
