Reviews Of Tinikunia Pukhuri

Tinsukia, Assam, India
Tinikunia Pukhuri, literally translating to the "Triangular Pond" (from the Assamese words Tini meaning three, and Kunia meaning corner/angle, and Pukhuri meaning pond), is a water body with immense historical and cultural significance located right in the heart of Tinsukia town. The name of the ent ire town of Tinsukia itself is directly derived from this distinctive pond. Historically, the area was known as Bengmora, the capital of the Muttack Kingdom founded by Swargadeo Sarbananda Singha in the late 18th century. The pond was dug around 1791 A.D. under the direction of King Sarbananda Singha by his minister, Gopinath Barbaruah (also known as Godha Baruah), as part of a benevolence initiative that saw the construction of many tanks. The pond's unusual triangular shape is its defining feature, setting it apart from other water bodies in the region. The king had instructed the minister to dig a pond with three corners, which became this landmark. In 1884, when the British-era Dibru-Sadiya Railway line was constructed, a railway station was established near this famous triangular pond. The station, and subsequently the growing settlement, was named Tinsukia after the pond, immortalizing its unique shape and historical importance. Over the years, the area around the pond has developed, and while the original pond exists, the surrounding space has often been developed into a park or a recreational area, sometimes mistakenly conflated with the nearby, larger cluster of nine ponds known as Na-Pukhuri. However, the Tinikunia Pukhuri remains the specific, triangular pond that gave the town its name and is a quiet testament to the legacy of the Muttack Kingdom. It serves as a reminder of the city's ancient roots before it grew into the modern commercial hub it is today.
