History

The Lachit Borphukhan’s Maidam is one of the places of interest in the city. It is a memorial stone which had been built in the memory of Lachit Borphukan who was an Ahom general. He had excellent military skills and fought very bravely in the battle of Saraighat to conquer back Guwahati from the Mughals. He was also known to have great leadership skills. After a year of the victory at Saraighat, Lachit Borphukan passed away due to some serious health issues.
