The correct answer is: b) Gomdhar Konwar
Gomdhar Konwar was a leader of the Moamoria Rebellion, a significant uprising in Assam in the early 19th century. The rebellion was against the British East India Company, which had established control over Assam in the late 18th century. The Moamoria rebels were led by Gomdhar Konwar and his brother, Lachit Konwar. The rebellion was initially successful, and the rebels captured several important towns and forts. However, the British were eventually able to suppress the rebellion, and Gomdhar Konwar was executed.
The Moamoria Rebellion was a significant event in Assamese history. It was the first major uprising against British rule in Assam, and it showed the potential for resistance to British authority. The rebellion also had a lasting impact on Assamese culture and society.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Maniram Dewan was a Bengali merchant and social reformer who was involved in the Santhal Rebellion, not the Moamoria Rebellion.
- Aniruddhadev was a 17th-century Assamese king who is best known for his patronage of art and literature.
- Kushal Konwar was a 16th-century Assamese king who is best known for his military conquests.
