Dumuria
History
Dumuria served as the second capital of the Bijni kingdom, a branch of the Koch dynasty. The capital had been located in a village now known as Bijni until it was attacked in 1864 by Jhawlia Mech, a chieftain from Bhutan. This event was followed by the Assam earthquake of 1897 which severally damaged the royal palaces of Dumuria. In search of a safe haven, the capital was temporarily relocated to Jogighopa before finally settling in the Deohati forest area which was later renamed as Abhayapuri.
