Biswa Singha
Biswa Singha (Bengali: মহারাজা বিশ্বসিংহ) (1515—1540) was the progenitor king of the Koch dynasty of the Kamata kingdom. His ethnicity was the Koch tribe, a successor state of the ancient Kamarupa kingdom. A grandson of a Koch hero, he was able to unify different tribal groups against the Baro-Bhuyans of Assam and establish a kingdom the remnant of which still exists today.
Establishment of the Koch dynasty
After breakup of the Kamarupa kingdom in the 12th century, its territories were divided among small kingdoms, local chiefs and landlords. To the very east emerged the Sutia, Ahom and the Kachari kingdoms. To their west was the region of the Baro-Bhuyans that formed the buffer between the eastern kingdoms and the Kamata kingdom. In 1498, Alauddin Hussain Shah of Gaur attacked Nilambar, the king of Kamata, and occupied it. He left the region in the hands of his son Daniyal, who was attacked and defeated by a conglomeration of Bhuyan landlords led by Harup Narayan. The Bhuyans succeeded in removing the conquerors, but they failed to create a kingdom and instead maintained their fiefdoms.
