The Battle of Saraighat and the Legend of Lachit Borphukan! (Untold Story)

This is the story of an amazing battle between Ahom and Mughals. This was an epic battle beacuse the army size in this battle can be compared to David Goliath fight, the small Ahom army was able to defeat the mighty Aurangjeb army and it was all beacuse of Ahom's superior war starategy and courage. The Ahom war strategy was devised by a general named Lachit Borphukan, who can be touted as one the best commanders India has produced. So please watch the episode to understand his strategy and to appreciate the whole chronology of the battle.

I am an Assamese. Its household story in Assam but not surprising that mainland Indians hasn't heard about it thanks to 70 years of Nehru-Gandhi dynastic rule who ensured that their ancestors the Islamic Mughals are shown as greatest and not some small Indian Hindu Kingdom.

Sir another Assamese great Inventor of Assam SIR GURU PRASAD DAS . His great invention was Vacuum Brake of Moder rial orders. He invented Vacuum Brake in 1930 and introduced in moder rail orders. He was honoured highest British Civilian Award the " KNIGHT" .. and as a honour to his invention the brake was nomenclatured as GP BRAKE . But still he has been remaining as unsung . Nobody in mian land of India knows his great invention . Even still after independence of 75 years (we celebrating Azadi ki mohotsav) his birth town Borpeta town has been remaining unconnected . I DOUBT WHETHER OUR PRESENT RAIL MINISTER KNOWS HIM OR NOT. I hope next vid on this greta inventor .

I have Watched your whole video.... I am From Assam..... The Story was incredible and informative...... I heard it from my grandparents but your video was more informative... There Is one more fact about Lachit Borphukan,At the night when Lachit was building the wall in the Saraighat valley the Mughals Were knocking The door.... Lachit was very sick that night so he made his Mama(mother's brother) the duty to build the wall....... At midnight Lachit's mama saw that all the soldiers(5000 soldiers) were exhausted making the wall , Lachit's mama decided to give some rest to the soldiers.....when sick Lachit saw that every soldiers were resting he got very angry... And with his sword Lachit Killed his own mama and claimed 'Dekhat koi momai dangor nohoi'which means 'Mama is not greater than the whole kingdom'.....You can Browse a little on it.....
Love from Assam
