The nearest towns are Sonari, Duliajan and Naharkatia. There is a small railway station named Borhat which is in the centre of the region. During the rule of the Chutias, it was a place for finding mineral salt, after 1523 it came under the rule of Suhungmung Dihingia Raja (1497–1539) and under the domain of the Ahom kingdom.[1] During Ahom's rule, Borhat was known as a place for finding mineral salt. The name Borhat is originated from Bor (meaning big) and hat (meaning market). There was a marketplace where salt was available. Salt was considered to be very precious during Ahom rule as Assam is far from the seas and people had to use only mineral salts.
Modern-day Borhat has several tea gardens (including Borhat Bagicha and Mahalakhi Tea Estate), some of which were founded by the British and many families have small tea plantations in their orchards.
