It was written by Lakshminath Bezbarua and the tune was made by Kamala Prasad Agarwala. It was first published in 1909 in an Assamese magazine named Bahi ("flute"). It was adopted as the Assam's state song in 1927 at asom chatrô sônmilôn ("Assam Student Conference") held in Tezpur,[2] and was officially adopted by the state government in 2013.[3][4]
