Namrup, Assam. The nearest towns are Sonari, Duliajan and Naharkatia. There is a small railway station named Borhat which is in the centre of the region. During the rule of the Chutias, it was a place for finding mineral salt, after 1523 it came under the rule of Suhungmung Dihingia Raja (1497–1539) and under the domain of the Ahom kingdom.

There was a marketplace where salt was available. Salt was considered to be very precious during Ahom rule as Assam is far from the seas and people had to use only mineral salts.
