PM Modi’s Powerful Tribute: The Emotional Significance of Charaideo Moidam Revealed in ‘Mann Ki Baat’
Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the historical significance of Charaideo Moidam, often called the “shining city on the hills,” during his recent address. This site, located in Assam, was the first capital of the Ahom dynasty, which ruled the region for nearly 600 years from the 13th century to the early 19th century. The Moidams, or burial mounds, are a testament to the region’s rich heritage and symbolize the deep respect for the departed kings and dignitaries of the Ahom Empire.
These mound-like structures are covered with soil and contain multiple chambers beneath them, housing the mortal remains and valuables of Ahom royalty. Charaideo Moidam stands as a vital link to Assam’s glorious past and serves as an important cultural and historical landmark, preserving the ancient customs and traditions of the Ahom dynasty.
