The history of the Sarania Kacharis is deeply intertwined with the broader history of Assam and its diverse indigenous communities. The Sarania Kacharis have a long history in the region, dating back to ancient times. They are believed to be descendants of the Kachari race  ethnic group, which is one of the earliest indigenous groups in Assam. The Kachari  tribes, including the Sarania Kacharis, have inhabited the region for centuries and have their own distinct language, culture, and customs. The Sarania Kachari community has witnessed various historical developments and interactions over the centuries. They were part of the larger Kachari kingdom, which existed in the region prior to the Ahom Kingdom's rise to power. The Kachari kingdom was a significant political entity in Assam during the medieval period. With the expansion of the Ahom Kingdom in the 16th century, the Sarania Kacharis, along with other indigenous communities, came under the rule of the Ahom dynasty. The Ahoms established their kingdom in Assam and exerted control over the region for several centuries. During the colonial period, Assam came under British rule, and the Sarania Kacharis, like other communities, were influenced by the political, social, and economic changes brought about by colonialism. The British administration introduced new systems of governance and influenced various aspects of Assamese society. In contemporary times, the Sarania Kachari community continues to preserve and promote their language, culture, and traditions. They celebrate their unique festivals, engage in traditional practices, and participate in socio-cultural activities that contribute to their cultural heritage
