c13.12

It was by no means easy to find a suitable candidate for the throne. After a prolonged discussion it was decided to nominate a prince of the Dihingia clan named Sujinphā, a son of the Nāmrup Raja and a descendant of Suhungmung, the Dihingia Raja. He ascended the throne with great éclat. Large sums of money were distributed amongst the people and the festivities continued for seven days. Before installing him, the nobles had themselves appointed a new Bar Barua in the place of the deceased Debera.
