It was founded in 1900 by migrants from Majuli, Jorhat to cultivate crops.

It is said that in ancient times there were two [pond](/source/pond)s that were joined in an [earthquake](/source/earthquake), hence the name. Thus, now there are two japjups; No-1 and No-2, altogether more or less 250 families. The primary education institutes n the village include Japjup M.V. School and Changali Goan LP School. Most of the people in both villages are engaged in the occupation of agriculture.{{fact|date=March 2024}}
