Lachit Barphukan-Brief Life Sketch
Lachit Barphukan was a heroic general and Barphukan under Ahom king Chakradhaj Singha and Joydhaj Singha. Lachit Barphukan was also an ideal patriot. When Ram Singh, the Mughal general, invaded Assam in 1667 AD, he built a mound of earth near Sharaighat to defend Guwahati.
A maternal uncle of Lachit Barphukan was in charge of managing the workers of the construction. Lachit Barphukan went there at midnight to supervise the work and found his uncle and the labourers in asleep. So with the charge of neglecting the duty, he cut off the neck of his maternal uncle at one stroke saying, “Unlce is not greater than the motherland.” Later, a fierce battle took place between the Ahoms and the Mughals at Sharaighat. The Mughal army suffered a crushing defeat in the war and retreated with defaming.
The story of the heroism of Lachit Barphukan shown in the battle of Sharaighat is recorded in golden letters in the history of Assam. ‘Lachit Day’ is celebrated on 24th November every year in Assam to pay homage to the heroism and patriotism of Lachit Barphukan. 0 0 0
