On the 24th of November each year, Lachit Divas is celebrated statewide in Assam, India, to commemorate the heroism of the great general Lachit Borphukan and the victory of the Assamese army over the Mughal army at the battle of Saraighat in 1671.

It is only a rumor that Borphukan sent a gift of special, native peppers to the opposing army the day before, causing gastrointestinal problems that led to his victory.

BTW, how would you feel being called Ass-a-mese?
