    Bir Chilarai March 1, 2021 In news : Recently, the Prime Minister of India paid tribute to Bir Chilarai(Assam ‘Kite Prince’) on his 512th birth anniversary Bir Chilarai(Shukladhwaja) He was Nara Narayan’s commander-in-chief and got his name Chilarai because, as a general, he executed troop movements that were as fast as a chila (kite/Eagle) The great General of Assam, Chilarai contributed a lot in building the Koch Kingdom strong He was also the younger brother of Nara Narayan, the king of the Kamata Kingdom in the 16th century. He along with his elder brother Malla Dev who later known as Naya Narayan attained knowledge about warfare and they were skilled in this art very well during their childhood. With his bravery and heroism, he played a crucial role in expanding the great empire of his elder brother, Maharaja Nara Narayan. He was the third son of Maharaja Biswa Singha (1523–1554 A.D.) The reign of Maharaja Viswa Singha marked a glorious episode in the history of Assam as he was the founder ruler of the Koch royal dynasty, who established his kingdom in 1515 AD. He had many sons but only four of them were remarkable. With his Royal Patronage Sankardeva was able to establish the Ek Saran Naam Dharma in Assam and bring about his cultural renaissance. Chilaray is said to have never committed brutalities on unarmed common people, and even those kings who surrendered were treated with respect. He also adopted guerrilla warfare successfully, even before Shivaji, the Maharaja of Maratha Empire did.

    Pre-Colonial Education System of Kamata Kochbihar State*

    Pre-colonial Education System of Kamata Kochbihar State* Partha Sen1 Abstract Kamrup since its inception may be considered as a place of learning and culture. Regional scholars composed Dhaker Vachan (Parole or words of Drum) in Sanskritized Bengali language in the ninth century A. D. There were people of the area, namely, Gopichand, Gorakshanath O Sona Ray. Joginitantra O Kalikapurana, who, composed on different occasions. Maharaja Nara Narayana due to his acceptance of Bhramanical religion brought Sanskrit and Bengali scholars from Bengal in order to compose Sanskrit works and its translation in Bengali language. It was under the patronage of Koch King Maharaja Nara Narayan, Vaisnavism also flourished in Kamata-Kochbihar which helped spread of mass education among the common people. The Zamindars of Rangpur took initiative to introduce English education after the coming of English East India Company with the financial support and assistance of the Koch kings. Key Words: Kamata-Kochbihar, Vainavism, Sanskrit Scholar, Pathsalas, Koch –kings. Introduction: The western part of the Brahmaputra valley in former time was included in the ancient kingdom of Kamrupa and from the 13th to 15th centuries A.D. The whole tract up to Karatoya seem to have formed a single kingdom but the name had been changed from Kamrupa to Kamata Though the eastern part of the kingdom declared independence in 1581 afterwards the portion became integral part of the Mughal Empire. The main dynasty ruling the western part of the former Kamata-Koch Kingdom (afterwards mentioned as Kochbihar) however maintained its identity still 1772, when the rulers chose to remain as native states by the Anglo-Koch treaty of 1772.2 From ancient time Kamrup was noted for the place of learning and culture.

    Class - VII Brief Introduction to Formation of Landforms Assam, located in tropical latitudes (24N˚ to 28N)˚ and eastern longitude (895˚ ’ E - 961˚’ E), is the most populous state in the North-east India. It is surrounded on three sides by hills and mountains. The river Brahmaputra and Barak flows in the north and south respectively. Assam is diverse in physical features and the major physiographical components are the senile plateau of Karbi-Anglong, representing a part of peninsular India, North Cachar hills which display the most youthful and highly differentiated relief features and the Brahmaputra and Barak plains present aggradational surfaces. Landmasses from Archaean to Tertiary origin bear the evidences of the evolutionary history of the earth in Assam and North-East India. The Karbi plateau is a part of Old-Gondwana land of more than 600 million years, the folded hills of North-Cachar belongs to tertiary period and the alluviums are of Quaternary Period. The North-Eastern region of India including Assam is situated in the merging zone of two Tectonic plates, namely the Indo-Australian and Euro-Asian plates. So the entire region is seismically very active. Physiographical Divisions of Assam On the basis of physical setup, Assam can be divided into three physiographical units: 1) The Brahmaputra valley or Assam valley 2) The Barak plain or Surma Valley 3) The hilly areas of Karbi-Anglong and North- Cachar Hill Districts Fig1.1: Physiographic Divisions of Assam. 40 The Brahmaputra Valley The most prominent physical feature in Assam is the Brahmaputra valley. This plain is surrounded by Bhutan and the Arunachal Himalayas in the north, Patkai Bum and Arunachal Hills in the east and Naga Hills, Karbi Plateau in the south.

    Numismatic Evidence on the Chronology and Succession of the Rulers of the Kingdom Ofkamta-Koch Behar

    Karatoya: NBU J. Hist. Vol. 4 :52-57 (2011) ISSN: 2229-4880 Numismatic Evidence on the Chronology and Succession of the Rulers of the Kingdom ofKamta-Koch Behar Debajit Dutta All historical interpretation is ultimately based on evidence derived from the sources of history, conventionally derived into two categories- literary and archaeological. From a historical point of view, literary sources include all texts and on the other hand archeological sources include all tangible material remains like inscription, coins and inscribed and uninscribrd images. Among these archaeological sources, coins have a unique place in the reconstruction of the old events. 1 It is right to state that coins have enormous power for initiating "an unending dialogue between the past and the present". A viable definition of history which underlies three usages of words- thought, record or events, can conspicuously be read from the bearings on the two sides of a coin. A.H.M. ·Jones pointed out the value of numismatic evidence with the following words-''Numismatic is a science in its own right. Coins deserve study both from the technical and artistic point ofview and must be classified typographically and chronologically".2 A coin technically speaking is a peace of metal of prescribed weight, embellished with designs or legends and produced under the direction of a public or private authority for its use as a medium of exchange.3 Every coin has two sides obverse and reverse. Obverse is also called head. It is the main side of a coin carrying the portrait head of the ruler or a symbol and name of the country.

    Culture survival for the indigenous communities with reference to North Bengal, Rajbanshi people and Koch Bihar under the British East India Company rule (1757-1857) Culture survival for the indigenous communities (With Special Reference to the Sub-Himalayan Folk People of North Bengal including the Rajbanshis) Ashok Das Gupta, Anthropology, University of North Bengal, India Short Abstract: This paper will focus on the aspect of culture survival of the local/indigenous/folk/marginalized peoples in this era of global market economy. Long Abstract: Common people are often considered as pre-state primitive groups believing only in self- reliance, autonomy, transnationality, migration and ancient trade routes. They seldom form their ancient urbanism, own civilization and Great Traditions. Or they may remain stable on their simple life with fulfillment of psychobiological needs. They are often considered as serious threat to the state instead and ignored by the mainstream. They also believe on identities, race and ethnicity, aboriginality, city state, nation state, microstate and republican confederacies. They could bear both hidden and open perspectives. They say that they are the aboriginals. States were in compromise with big trade houses to counter these outsiders, isolate them, condemn them, assimilate them and integrate them. Bringing them from pre-state to pro-state is actually a huge task and you have do deal with their production system, social system and mental construct as well. And till then these people love their ethnic identities and are in favour of their cultural survival that provide them a virtual safeguard and never allow them to forget about nature- human-supernature relationship: in one phrase the way of living.

    Chapter IV the Koch Kingdom: Consolidation, Segmentation and Continuity

    Chapter IV The Koch Kingdom: Consolidation, Segmentation and Continuity. Visvasimha's kingdom got the final task of transformation to a 'centralized and consolidated state system' with the beginning of rule of King Nara Narayan (Malladeva) in 1540 A.D.' Together with his brother Sukladhvaj (Chilarai), Nara Narayan continued the policy of aggressive warfare initiated by Visvasimha. But division of the kingdom between the successors of Nara Narayan and Chilarai and internecine strife between two branches eventually reduced the Koch territory. But the Koches of main branch (Cooch Behar) continued the warfare for its own defence against the Ahoms, Mughals and the Bhuatense and maintained its independent status till 1772 A.D. 4.1. Warfare and Territorial Formation. In his lifetime Visvasimha distributed the offices of the state to his all sons.^ Malladeva was elected as Yubaraj (king) and Sukladhvaj as the general of army. But they were engaged in Sanskrit studies in Benaras^ while Visvasimha was in the deathbed. So Narasimha, eldest son of Visvasimha, had assumed the kingship. But he fled from the capital when Malladeva and Sukladhvaj got back from Benaras. Narasimha had been roaming for political shelter in Eastern Nepal which was under the control of tribal people and their polity came to be identified as Morung or Vijaypur.

    INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION The Princely State of Cooch Behar situated in the northern most part of India has preserved its separate identity for a much larger period than most of the Native principalities of Hindustan . 1 It was founded on the ruins of the ancient Hindu kingdom of Kamrup by a war- like tribe called kuchs or Kochs, who swept down the North and formed the Kingdom which was named after their clan. The dynasty was lasted since then for nearly 450 years held uninterrupted sway . 2 This proves that the founders of the kingdom were very powerful , for otherwise they would have been over thrown by the Mughal Emperors . 3 The progenitor of the koch kings was a Mech or Koch – it was not certain which – named Hariya Mandal, a resident of Chikan -gram, a village in the Khuntaghat Paragana of the Goalpara dictrict . 4 His son Bishwa Singha moved his Capital from Chikangram to Cooch Behar, where he built a fine city . In this way the royal history of Cooch Behar started its progress . 5 After the accession of Maharaja Nara Narayan to the throne of Cooch Behar a new dimension ushered in the state . In 1555 he struck both gold and silver coins which were known as Narani or Narayani coins . 6 In the 53 rd year of Raja Shaka Nara Narayan led his army into Assam and also subdued the neighbouring states of Kachar, Manipur, Jaintia , Tipperah, Kairam, Dimuria and Sylhet . 7 Thus during his reign (1555 – 1587) Cooch Behar was an extensive kingdom. After Maharaja Nara Narayan , from 1587 to 1765 due to the political turmoil a number of rulers ascended to the throne of the State .
