Thowra was one of the 126 assembly constituencies of Assam Legislative Assembly. Thowra formed part of the Jorhat Lok Sabha constituency. This constituency was abolished in 2023.
The main area was located around a tea garden known as Thowra Tea Estate. As such, though it is one of the many tea gardens in Assam, it boasts of having a golf field. However recently, the field lacks maintenance and is a common grazing ground.
