Answer: The Moammars are mainly of the Maran community. There are many different types of satras in the country. The word Moammar is believed to have originated from the word 'Mayamara' One of the reasons why the Moammar Rebellion was called a mass uprising was the large number of ordinary people who joined it, most of whom were ordinary peasants or other occupations.
Answer: The Moammar disciples had deep devotion to the Guru. He did not hesitate to lay down his life for him if necessary. These disciples of Mayamara Satra never bowed their heads to anyone other than their Guru. Once, Swargadeo Pratap Singh, in order to insult the devotion of the Moammar disciples to his guru, put two disciples of the satra on a horse and gave them a ride. Two sharp swords were tied around their necks in front of them. He thought that the two Moammar disciples would be forced to bow down for fear of death. But to everyone's surprise, the two disciples accepted the beheadings but did not bow their heads. This incident doubled the dignity, confidence and courage of the Moammar Mahant. During the reign of the next king after Pratap Singh, Churumpha Bhagarja, Guru Nityananda, the satradhikar of Mayamara Satra, was killed by royal order. The Moammars blamed the Ahom monarchy for the massacre and determined to take revenge. After the assassination of Nityananda, there is evidence of several other royal atrocities. These include the assassination of Baikunthadeo Mahant on the orders of Gadadhar Singh, the ill-treatment of Chaturbhujdev Mahant in the royal court of Rudra Singh, and the forced sacrifice of Moammar Mahant on the orders of Barraja Phuleshwari during the reign of Shiva Singh. The above reasons can be considered as the political reasons for the Moammar rebellion.
Answer: The Ahoms were people who believed in their own religion from the beginning of their rule in Assam. Somdeu was their chief deity. But over time they became attracted to Hindu religious traditions. Gadadhar Singh changed the old political policy of the Ahom and felt that the policy of repression was appropriate instead of the policy of compassion towards the satras. Before Gadadhar Singh ascended the throne, he learned about the royal traditions prevalent within the various satras when he fled from the wrath of the king. The satradhikars of many satras could not withstand the changed Ahom policy of Gadadhar Singh's reign and fled to safety. Many satradhikars were arrested and tortured by order of the king. However, this policy of the Ahoms did not last long. Gadadhar Singh's successor, King Rudra Singh, revised this policy and brought back the exiled, persecuted or fugitive satradhikars and settled them in Majuli near Garhwal. This allowed him to often keep a close eye on the satradhikars from the capital. He also took refuge with Keshavdev, the satradhikar of Auniati satra, and created a conflict with the Shudra satradhikars by giving special status to the Bamunia satras. Thus, they sowed the seeds of division between Brahmins and Shudras and increased the differences between the two castes. During the reign of His Majesty Shiva Singh, Barkunwari Phuleshwari ('Baraja') became more prestigious. During his reign, Shakti religion flourished. At one time, the Shudra Mahants were persecuted by royal decree. There are even examples of such disciples being forced to participate in Shakta pujas and take blood samples of sacrifices.
Answer: All the male citizens of the Ahom kingdom were pikemen. In the beginning, four pikemen formed a group. They had to take turns from the group of four to work the king. Later, during the reign of Rajeshwar Singh, the number of members of a pike group was reduced to This increased the wages of a pike to four months per annum. Therefore, each pike had an additional month's burden. Since most of the Moors were working commoners, they were reluctant to accept this additional burden of manual labour. Another process of Pike exploitation was the class division of the Pike. The Pikes may be divided into two groups. The first group is the Kari Pike which is the most numerous. The second part is the Samua Pike. They were few in number but superior in quality to the Kari Pikes. They were exempted from physical labor in exchange for currency. However, as the number of Chamua Pikes gradually increased for various reasons, the number of Kari Pikes gradually decreased and the burden of exploitation on them increased. Consequently, social inequality increased and conflicts arose. The above shows that the Pike system was largely responsible for the Moammar Rebellion.
The results of the Moammar Rebellion are as
follows:
a) Political Consequences: The political consequences of the Moammar Rebellion were very poisonous. After a long civil war that lasted for nearly three decades, both the Ahom monarchy and the Ahom kingdom were shattered and dying. The British began the first process of settling in Assam by helping the Ahom regime which failed to suppress the rebellion. Another negative consequence of the Moamari rebellion was the decline of the Ahom rule. The Ahom rule was a medieval feudal system. In this system, the king was the head of administration and other titles such as Buragohani, Buragohani, Barpatragohani, Barbarua, Fukan, Shaikia, Barfukan, Bora etc. were officers subordinate to the king. However, such ministers took advantage of the king's weaknesses and became stronger from time to time. From the days of Swargadeo Shiva Singh, the ministers and bureaucrats took advantage of the weakness of the Ahom kings and became stronger. Most of them worked for personal gain, which created a sense of unrest in the minds of the people. Later, during the reign of Lakshi Singh or his successors, the infestation of these selfish officers increased and the suffering of the people in the kingdom was not contained. The people gradually lost confidence in the Ahom rule. Many others joined the rebel forces for their lives and safety. However, a centralized system of rule was not established among the Moammars either. After seizing power, they had a power struggle among themselves. Moreover, the Moammars did not introduce a new system of rule. The common people saw no change in the old regime. Their confidence in the monarchy was declining day by day as the regime did not change.
b) Socio-Economic Consequences: The Moammar Rebellion severely damaged the economic and social sphere of Assam. During the long rebellion the belligerent spirit of both sides manifestly increased the excesses of the common people. Just as the Moammars destroyed the royal supporters and their lives and property, the king's soldiers did not hesitate to punish many people, whether young or old, with murder, torture, exile, etc., without judging the guilty or innocent. As a result of the extreme violence on both sides, many people had to flee to the forests, mountains, or other neighboring kingdoms. Famine became commonplace in the country as both sides burned each other's fields and houses. It is also said that the army of Bargohain, who was resisting the Moammar rebellion, had to survive by killing horses, elephants, etc. used in battle. In addition, a large proportion of the Moammars were farmers and skilled in various practical crafts. Most of these skilled men may have died in rebellion or been permanently maimed. The production of gold and weapons had declined. It had a negative impact on the country's economy. This is because most of the imports and exports of Assam were in exchange for gold and salt rather than rupees. Another reason for the Moammar rebellion was the differences between Brahminism of Hinduism and the Mahapurushia Vaishnavism. Therefore, from time to time, the rulers also showed bias towards the Vaishnava Mahaparushia community satras and the disciples of such satras. The rebellion increased, rather than diminished, this discriminatory behavior; This further increased social isolation. Therefore, it is important to understand the importance of these issues. Therefore, it is important to understand the importance of these issues. In contrast, the Moammar rebels also destroyed the Brahmin satras.
c) Creation of the Matak Kingdom: During the Moammar Rebellion, several rebel leaders had the opportunity to rule feudal rule in different territories. The Moammar leaders established themselves as feudal landowners in Benmara, Majuli, Nagaon, Kamrup, etc. The Moammars of Bengmara diplomatically used the strategy of seeking the help of the Manchu troops twice under the leadership of Sarbananda. However, on both occasions the Ahoms wisely drove them out. However, Purnananda Buragohain took the matter seriously and wanted to end the Moammar rebellion as soon as possible. He soon made a treaty with Sarbananda to form the Matak kingdom and appointed Sarbananda as the 'Barasenapati' as the tributary ruler. The agreement created a new Matak kingdom in the territory between the Brahmaputra and Dihing rivers, centered on Benmara (now Tinsukia). Sarbananda promised to send ivory and velvet cloth to the Ahom king as an annual tribute. The devastating reaction to the Moammar Rebellion pushed Assam into a terrible future. Assam was completely wounded by the terrible Manch invasion and the British reappeared under the pretense of protecting Assam from such a danger that no state in India escaped its devastating devastation.
Answer: I think the Moammar Rebellion was a failed rebellion. The political consequences of the rebellion were very poisonous. After a long civil war that lasted for nearly three decades, both the Ahom monarchy and the Ahom kingdom were shattered and dying. The British started the process of establishing themselves in Assam by helping the Ahom regime which failed to suppress the rebellion. Another negative consequence of the Moamari rebellion was the decline of the Ahom rule. The Ahom kings took advantage of the weakness of the ministers and officials to become stronger from the time of Swargadeo Shiva Singh.

During the Moammar Rebellion, several rebel leaders had the opportunity to rule feudal rule in different territories. The Moammar leaders established themselves as feudal landowners in Benmara, Majuli, Nagaon, Kamrup, etc. The Moammars of Benmara twice summoned the Man army under the leadership of Sarbananda. However, on both occasions the Ahoms wisely drove them out. However, Purnananda Buragohain took the matter seriously and wanted to end the Moammar rebellion as soon as possible. He soon made a treaty with Sarbananda and formed the Matak kingdom with Sarbananda as the 'Barasenapati' as the tributary ruler 'The appointment was made by treaty to form a new Matak kingdom in the territory between the Brahmaputra and Dihing rivers centered on Benmara.

Sarbananda promised to send ivory and velvet cloth to the Ahom king as an annual tribute. The devastating reaction to the Moammar rebellion pushed Assam into a terrible future.
Answer: The Moammar subject rebellion caused a tremendous stir in the Ahom kingdom. Therefore, the foundations of the monarchy were about to collapse. The Ahom regime failed completely internally to survive such a terrible political earthquake and was forced to seek military assistance from the British East India Company in Bengal. The British were also waiting for such an opportunity. Therefore, when the Ahom king Gaurinath Singh appealed to the British to rescue the people of the state from the Moammar rebellion and the frequent atrocities committed by the Barkandajs of Bengal, the Company's government readily agreed to send a military expedition. The main objective of this expedition was to gather detailed news and information about Assam and also to suppress the rebellions of Barkandaj and Moamaria and restore the Ahom king to the throne. The military expedition was led by Captain Thomas Wells. The army remained in Assam from mid-November 1792 to May Sir John Sore, who succeeded Lord Cornwallis, the Company's Governor-General, adopted a new policy. This new policy was anti-intervention in foreign countries. He firmly wanted to implement this policy. So he ordered Wells to return as soon as possible. Therefore, Swargadeo Gaurinath Singh and other Ahoms Despite repeated requests by Da-Dr repeated requests by Da-Dr Wells decided to finish the campaign and return. decided to finish the campaign and return.
Answer: Gaurinath Singh took refuge in Nagaon in the wake of the rebellion of King Krishna Narayan of Darang and the rebellion of Haradatta Chowdhury in North Kamrup. However, the rebellion led by Sindhura Hazarika in Nagaon also led to Swargadeo fleeing back to Guwahati. On the way across the Brahmaputra, he met Captain Wells, who was coming from Bengal, and returned to Guwahati with the help of Wells. After ending the Darangia and Kamrupia rebellions and the Barkandaj problem, Wells set out for Rangpur with the intention of securing the Ahom kingdom in the south. This is because a trade treaty had already been signed between the Ahom king Gaurinath Singh and Captain Wells. It was in the interest of this treaty that it became necessary to suppress the Moammars in the south and re-establish Ahom rule. Wells asked the Governor General to send six new companies. The Governor-General, Lord Cornwallis, recognized the seriousness of the situation and sent additional troops in response to Wells' letter. In 1786, Buragohain Purnananda worked hard to stop the Moammars outside Jorhat. Now the new British army led by Wells increased the morale of the Ahom army many times over. The joint attack of the British and Ahom armies increased the morale of the soldiers many times over. The Moammars were forced to flee Rangpur. Many Moammars died. King Bharat Singh also became badly wounded and managed to escape with his life. Rangpur was again liberated from the rebels. Sir John Sore adopted a new policy as the successor to Lord Cornwallis, the Company's Governor General. This new policy was anti-interference in foreign countries. He ordered Wells to return as soon as possible to implement this policy. After the return of Captain Wells, the country was again in chaos. The Moammars recaptured Rangpur. Therefore, it can be said that Captain Wells had some success in suppressing the Moammar Rebellion, but the rebellion resurfaced upon his return.
Answer: Captain Wells wrote a valuable note on Assam and sent it to Sir John Chor, the then British Governor General. There are many important things to learn about the political and economic conditions of Assam in the eighteenth century. Wells' notes give an account of the election of the king of the Ahom kingdom and his powers. The note even mentions five powerful ministers of the Ahom rule and their frequent power struggles. The note also gives a brief account of pike customs. Therefore, it is important to note that the recent political unrest in Assam ismainly due to the political arbitrariness of Kirti Chandra Barbarua, the immoral deprivation of the throne of Mohanmala Gohain, the assassination of Moammar Mahant and the unwanted competition for power among high-ranking ministers and bureaucrats. Wells claimed that the British troops succeeded in saving Assam from this stalemate and also mentioned the various measures he took to establish peace in Assam. Wells seems to have placed special emphasis on the natural resources of Assam when commenting on
trade. Referring to the large import and export trade between Assam and Bengal, he wrote that Assam collected duties of about Rs. 90,000 per annum from this trade. His account suggests that there was a great famine of salt in Assam at that time. Salt was the most prominent import. Within Assam, some salt was produced in Shadia and Nagapahar but of low quality. Assam produced abundant paddy, soybeans, maize, ginger, indigo, coconut, la, iron, gold, etc. Guwahati was a bustling and populous city at that time. The city extended along both banks of the Brahmaputra River. A riverside fort had 113 cannons, three of which were made in Europe. A little distance from the Brahmaputra River, surrounded by a concrete wall about 6 feet high, there was a house so large that all his soldiers could stay there. He also gave a description of Guwahati and the Ahom capital of Rangpur. It is about 20 miles in circumference. There was also a safe place with a brick wall. The outskirts of the city were well cultivated. Most of the land belonged to the kings and nobles. Market produce was not usually sold. Rice could never be sold. Gold and salt were the only means of trade. The prices of goods were very cheap. The common people suffered from a shortage of money more than anything else. However, Assam was a prosperous country and King Gaurinath Singh was able to spend a lot of money to support the British army.
Answer: Kirti Chandra Barbarua: Kirti Chandra Barbarua was a disciple of Dihing Satra. There was an aggressive conflict between the Dihing and Moamaria satras. As a result, Kirti Chandra insulted the Mahant of the Moammar Satra on every occasion. Once His Majesty Laxmi Singh and Kirti Chandra went for a boat trip. On the way, the Mahant bowed to the king near the Mayamara Satra but showed no respect to the proud Barbarua. Therefore, it is important to understand the importance of these issues. There are many reasons why it is important to understand the importance of these issues. A few months after this incident, Naharkhowa Shaikia and Raghav Neog, leaders of the Marans, tribal disciples of the Moamaria Satra, brought a herd of elephants to the royal house for the annual tax. Therefore, it is important to note that the present study is not limited to the field of physics, but also includes the field of physics, biology, chemistry, and physics.
2) Mayamara Satra
Answer: Mayamara Satra is the name of a Vaishnava Satra. It belongs to the time setting. There were mainly people of the Maran tribe who were disciples of this satra. However, the satra was also popular among the Kacharis, Chutia, Ahoms, Kaibartas and others. One of the special reasons behind this popularity was that the satradhikars of this satra belonged to the Shudra community. The tribals had a low status in the caste Hindu society. Therefore, they got a special status in the Mayamara Satra run by the Shudra Satradhikar which led to an increase in the number of disciples in this Satra day by day. Their unconditional devotion to their gurus and their increased number of disciples contributed greatly to the rise of the strength of the Moammar Satra as well as its Mahants.
Answer: Purnananda Buragohain was the son of Ghanshyam Buragohain. Also known as Lari Buragohain. His intelligence, bravery and devotion to duty have occupied a special place in the history of Assam. Buragohain continued to defend the rest of the kingdom with a small army. From time to time for security reasons, he retreated to Jorhat and later established the Ahom capital there. At that time, many Ahom people could not stand the oppression of the Moammars and thought of joining the Moammars for self-defense. But Buragohain was able to prevent them from doing so. He taught the villagers warfare and sent them to fight against the Moammars. It is known that Buragohain protected his subjects like a bird protects its young behind its wings. The Moammar Rebellion ended under the leadership of Purnananda Buragohain.
Answer: The Pikes can be divided into two groups. The first group is the Kari Pike which is the most numerous. The second part is the Samua pike. They were few in number but superior in quality to the Kari Pikes. They were exempted from physical labor in exchange for currency. However, as the number of Chamua Pikes gradually increased for various reasons, the number of Kari Pikes gradually decreased and the burden of exploitation on them increased.
Answer: A commercial treaty was signed between Gaurinath Singh and Captain Wells on 8 February According to this agreement
1. A tax of 10% was imposed on goods imported into Assam from anywhere under the British.
2. The same amount of tax ie 10% was levied on goods exported from Assam to any part of the British.
3. There shall be no tax on paddy and rice.
4. Two customs posts were established at Guwahati and Kandahar to levy export and import taxes.
5. European merchants other than the British shall not be allowed to trade in Assam without the permission of the British and Ahom Governments.
6) Barraja Phuleshwari?
Answer: During the reign of His Majesty Shiva Singh, Barkunwari Phuleshwari (Baraja) became more prestigious. In his days, Shakti religion flourished. At one time, the Shudra Mahants were persecuted by royal decree. There are even examples of such disciples being forced to take blood samples to participate in Shakta pujas.
Answer: Swargadeo Rudra Singh invited a Shakta Brahmin scholar named Krishnaram Bhattacharya from Nadia in Bengal to the kingdom. Later, his son Shiva Singh took refuge with him and settled the Brahmin in the Nilachal Hills. From then on, Krishnaram Bhattacharya and his descendants became known as 'Parbatia Gosai'
Answer: During the Moammar Rebellion, several rebel leaders had the opportunity to rule feudal rule in different territories. One of them was Sarbananda. Purnananda Buragohain made a treaty with Sarbananda to form the Matak kingdom and Sarbananda was appointed 'Barasenapati' as the tributary ruler. According to the agreement, a new Matak kingdom was formed in the territory between the Brahmaputra and Dihing rivers centered on Benmara. Sarbananda promised to send ivory and velvet cloth to the Ahom king as an annual tribute. Sarbananda was a powerful Moammar leader.
answer: Bharat Singh was a pioneer of the Moammar rebellion. The British and Ahom armies jointly attacked King Bharat Singh, who was badly wounded and managed to escape with his life. He again met with the Tsingfao and Khamatis and declared a rebellion (1801). But this time too the royal army succeeded in suppressing the rebels. Bharat Singh died in the battle. When Gaurinath Singh left the capital and went to Guwahati, the Moammars made Bharat Singh their king.
Answer: The capital of the Ahoms was the city of Rangpur. It is about 20 miles in circumference. It was a protected area with a hoter wall. The outskirts of the city were well cultivated. Most of the land belonged to the kings and nobles.
