The beautiful temples, sanctuaries and historical remains are the main attractions of the Darrang district. One such place of historical relevance in the district is the Patharughat Swaheed Minar. This tourist spot is located about 16 kms away from Mangaldai and is considered as one of the prominent places in the state of Assam. This minar was constructed in the memory of the victims of Assamese origin who lost their lives in the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy. We have all read about this incident in our history and have known about brutality people had to suffer for the nation. A visit to this place is a sign of showing respect to those great souls who are an important part of our Indian history. The architecture of the minar is marvelously done and reflects the masterpiece crafted by the engineers of those times. The beauty of the monument is enhanced by the presence of the greenery that surrounds the entire area.
