Okhla Times Campus Reporter/JMI | March 16, 2012
Contemporary concerns, rooted in older contestations and challenges, formed the core of a day-long National Seminar on Manipur organized by the Centre for North East Studies at Jamia Millia Islamia on March 12, 2012, where participants made evocative pleas for a more nuanced understanding of issues of the state and its history.
Speakers from Manipur and Universities in New Delhi and elsewhere spoke on a range of issues, covering the “Kuki Rebellion”, the anti-British movement by a Naga tribe in Manipur as well as the prominent role of women in social and political movements, according to the media coordinator.
The seminar was titled ‘Little Known Fighters Against the Raj; Manipur’s Bir Tikendrajit’ , organized by the Centre for North East Studies and the Saifuddin Kitchlew Chair at Jamia Millia Islamia and attended by over 80 participants, including scholars and students, diplomats and media.
