Why November here
Where the last stand against the British was fought in 1891: memorial complex and hillock on the Imphal-Moreh road.
Khongjom commemorates the 1891 Anglo-Manipur War’s last stand: the memorial complex on Kheba hillock honours Paona Brajabashi and the Manipuri soldiers who fought the British column on the Imphal-Moreh road. April 23 is observed each year.
Wildlife this month: Migratory birds arrive at Keibul Lamjao and Loktak.
