It was arround 2nd decade of 20th century. A couple of families were in search of a place to ensure live and livelihood. They settled down in a bank of a river in a fine summer day. The river was full of resources. All were fine, during summer. But as time goes on the river turned into a cannel (in Assamese known as 'Hula')during winter. They realised that the water source was a cannel, rather then a river. The Mishing tribe, (previously known as Miri in Assam) has to shift in search of another place due to lack of available water in the area. Latter on the catchman area is known as Mirihula, situated in Dikhari Moran Gaon Pancjayat of Dibrugarh district. Presently the catchman area is divided into two revenue villages i.e. No.1 Mirihula and No.2 Mirihula, represents ward no. 7 of the G.P.
