Why February here
Early Meitei culture and WWII history: the INA memorial where the tricolour was first unfurled in 1944.
Moirang is the town of early Meitei folk culture and a defining WWII moment: the official tourism material records the INA flag first unfurled here on April 14, 1944, commemorated at the INA memorial museum. Lai Haraoba traditions run deep, with May festivals referenced in official district material.
