Assam’s Diverse Muslim Community: An Emblem of Harmony and Indigenous Roots

Assam, often referred to as Sankar-Azanor desh (land of Srimanta Sankaradeva, the Vaishnavite saint-philosopher, and Azan Fakir, the Islamic Sufi preacher), is a region known for its long-standing harmony among people of various faiths and ethnicities.
