| Summary, etc | While Kaziranga is globally celebrated as a symbol of successful wildlife conservation, particularly for the endangered one-horned rhinoceros, its history is also marked by the marginalisation and dispossession of local indigenous communities. Among them, the Karbis of Assam claim ancestral ties to the land, asserting that the park derives its name from Kajir Ronghangpi, a Karbi woman whose story has been preserved through oral traditions but excluded from mainstream conservation discourse and official historiography. The article argues that people mobilise the cultural myths to resist dispossession and reassert indigenous identity in the face of narrowly defined development projects.- Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/commentary/kaziranga-national-park-and-kajir-ronghangpi.html |
