Thengal manor. Located in a traditional Assamese village named Jalukonibari, merely 15 km away from the town of Jorhat, the majestic mansion Thengal Manor is not just the finest heritage property in Assam but a tale in itself. Home to the affluent and aristocratic, The Khongiya Barooah family of Upper Assam, Thengal Manor upholds the pride of being that historic place from where the very first daily newspaper in Assamese, ‘Dainik Batori’ was launched on 12th August 1935.
