Explore the Revolt of Moamarias (1769-99), its impact on the Ahom kingdom, and the regions affected. Learn about the revolt's causes, key events, and its outcome.
The Moamarias' revolts weakened the Ahoms and opened the doors for others to attack the region.
In 1792, the King of Darrang (Krishnanarayan), assisted by his band of burkandazes (demobilised soldiers of the Muslim armies and zamindars), revolted.
To crush these revolts, the Ahom ruler had to request British help.
Although the Ahom kingdom survived the rebellion, the weakened kingdom fell to a Burmese invasion.
Eventually, the region came under British rule.
