Abstract
Like the other Assamese people, Bohag Bihu is the most popular festival of the Morans of Assam, India. But there are notice some own features. The Moran tribe celebrates the Bihu in own way. Their tradition of Bihu celebration is different from other tribes of Assam. On the other hand, Magh Bihu and Kati Bihu are not strictly celebrated by the Morans. They do not celebrate Bihu only as a festival of joy and merry making; they celebrate it by following rituals and customs. Dharma Husari, Rati Bihu (Bihu performed at night) etc. are the important part of the Moran Bihu. The main objective of this paper is to highlight the own characteristics of the Moran Bihu and its rituals and custom.
