In the history of colonial Assam the introduction of British rule in the third decade of 19th century was a remarkable issue. As an alternative to the Burmese rule, at the initial stage the British rule had also been welcomed by the native of the province. However, due to the introduction of new administrative policies as well as reforms affected the people of Assam. In this new political as well as administrative equation the native of the province lost their earlier privileges and other traditional aspects. Therefore in the first half of 19th century the discontentment of people of Assam reflected in different form at different level. Among these discontentments of native of the province, the revolt of Ahom prince Gomadhar Konwar and the revolt of Dhanajay Borphukan which were organized in order to restore Ahom monarchy in Upper Assam are remarkable in Assam history from various perspectives. Therefore, in this study an attempt has been made to understand the anti-British uprisings of first half in general and revolt of Gomadhar Konwar and Dhanajay Borgohain in particular.
