Naharkatia MLA reviews progress of Moung Siu-Ka-Fa project at Tipam
1 2 3 4 5 6 Dibrugarh: Naharkatia MLA Taranga Gogoi on Tuesday conducted a comprehensive review of the construction progress of Moung Siu-Ka-Fa, a heritage tourism project being developed at Tipam Deosali Pahar (hill) in Dibrugarh district. The site holds immense historical significance as the location of the first temporary capital established by Chaolung Siu-Ka-Pha, the founder of the Ahom dynasty. Located 22 km from Naharkatia town, Tipam Deosali Pahar represents a pivotal chapter in Assam's medieval history. It was here that Chaolung Siu-Ka-Pha, also known as Chaolung Sukapha, established his first temporary capital in 1228, laying the foundation for what would become one of India's longest-ruling dynasties.

The Ahom kingdom founder, originally a prince of the Su/Tsu (Tiger) clan of the Mao-Shan sub-tribe from present-day Mong Mao in China's Yunnan Province, created a dynasty that would endure for nearly six centuries until 1826. "The project, Moung Siu-Ka-Fa, aims to preserve the historical heritage and enhance the region's beauty. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pernas e tornozelos inchados?

Chaolung Siu-Ka-Pha''s establishment of the Ahom kingdom marked the beginning of a transformative period in Assam's history. Often referred to as the architect of Assam, he successfully unified various ethnic groups across the region, creating a cohesive kingdom that would resist external invasions and preserve local culture for centuries. The Ahom dynasty's 600-year reign from 1228 to 1826 represents one of the most stable and enduring political entities in medieval India. Under their rule, Assam developed a unique cultural identity that blended indigenous traditions with influences from Southeast Asia, creating the distinctive Assamese civilisation that exists today. Taranga Gogoi during his visit expressed optimism about the project's timeline and impact. "This site will serve as a reminder of our glorious past and inspire future generations. We hope that the project will be completed swiftly, attracting tourists and historians alike, while also boosting the local economy," he stated.
