Bigha is a traditional unit of land measurement still widely used in various parts of Assam. Unlike standardized units like acres or square meters, the size of one Bigha can vary significantly across different regions. In Assam, 1 Bigha typically ranges between 100 Lessa, depending on local customs. Despite the adoption of the metric system, Bigha continues to play a critical role in land transactions, agricultural land records, and rural real estate dealings.
The Bigha unit has ancient roots in India’s agrarian society and was traditionally used to measure farmland and rural landholdings. Its usage in Assam predates the Mughal and British colonial eras but was formalized during both regimes. Since different rulers and regions used their own standards for Bigha, no nationwide standard conversion emerged. This diversity persists today, resulting in varied Bigha-to-square foot or Bigha-to-acre conversions in Assam and other Indian states.
