Boro Muolkoi, often Misspelt as Boro Mulkoi, is a Hmar village in Dima Hasao,
located in the Haflong subdivision of Dima Hasao district, in the state of Assam, India.[1][2] It was established in 1917. Boro Muolkoi has the postal PIN code 788818, which is also known as the ZIP code or postal code of the village.[3][4]
Etymology
[edit]The name Boro Muolkoi is a blend of words from Bangla and Hmar:
Thus, the name can be interpreted as "Big Zigzag Hills", referring to the geographical nature of the region.
History
[edit]Boro Muolkoi traces its origin to Phunchawngzawl (Muolkoi), a settlement established in 1917 by Alien Bapui and Rohauvung Parate. Phunchawngzawl (Muolkoi) became an early centre of Christianity in the region, where the first local Christian conversions were recorded in 1921 who were Roneilien Parate and Sumhauhrawng Parate. Following an influenza epidemic, the residents relocated and permanently settled at Muolkoi (Zopui) in 1923 under the leadership of Rochawnghlun Parate. After further relocations, Boro Muolkoi was established in 1927. Leadership later passed to Roneikhup Parate after Rochawnghlun Parate became ill. In 1958, a nearby Khasi (Pnar) settlement became known as Chhoto Muolkoi, and the two villages have since maintained close social and traditional ties.[9]
Notable people
[edit]Given below are the notable persons of Boro Muolkoi:
- Roneilien Parate[10]- Roneilien Parate or Roneilian of Boro Muolkoi was a representative of the Hmar Kuki community who appeared before the North-East Frontier (Assam) Tribal and Excluded Areas Sub-Committee at Haflong on 16 April 1947. He co-presented Appendix D, a memorandum seeking constitutional safeguards for the Kuki people of North Cachar Hills. The memorandum contributed to discussions that later influenced the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution of India and the establishment of the North Cachar Hills Autonomous District Council.[11]
- Vanlal Tluonga Bapui[12]- Co-authored the Hmar-Hmar-English dictionary (published with Kedutso Kapfo) and wrote the Hmar-English Dictionary.[13] Published the Hmar Grammar (1996) through the Central Institute of Indian Languages (CIIL). Authored Oral Traditions of the Hmars (2011) and Assam Rama Hmarhai (Hmars in Assam) (2007).[14] Published articles such as "Teaching of Hmar Language with Special Reference to Assam" to help standardize the language in education.[15]
- Vângpa- Vângpa, an ancestor of Boro Muolkoi was appointed by the British colonial administration as the first collector (Mauzadar) of the newly established Vangpa Mauza Revenue Circle, which comprised Hmar-inhabited villages in the southern part of the North Cachar Hills. According to the source, the revenue circle was named after Vângpa. It further states that British officials subsequently recorded the name as "Bompa Mauza" in official records. In May 2018, the then Mauzadar, Lalzarlawm Tuolor, changed the official name of the revenue circle to "Vompa Mauza".[16]
Language
[edit]Although the residents belong to Hmar, the most commonly spoken language is Thiek language "Ṭhiek Ṭawng" (Ṭhiek Dialect), from the Ṭhiek sub-clan of the Hmar tribe.[17][18] Hmar is used as a secondary language, especially in inter-village communication, religious activities, and education. Other languages like Assamese, Hindi, and English are also occasionally used. The village still largely uses the "Ṭhiek Ṭawng" (Ṭhiek Dialect), a dialect used by a sub-clan of the Hmar people.
