Imphal, August 25 2014:
Prior to the 63th death anniversary of Haipou Jadonang in August 29, around 25 students of the Students' care Hostel Sangaiprou today cleaned the Haipou jadonang Park.
Speaking to mediapersons, one of the students involved in the voluntary work said, "Haipou Jadonang is one of the freedom fighters in the State known for his patriotism and sacrifices for the people and society at large.
We took up this initiative to remember his sacrifices and to keep alive his patriotism in us.
We also urge the public to maintain our social duties and not dump any waste in and around the Haipou Jadonang Park" .
DH Gaikhemmei of Jadonang Death Anniversary Committee stated that locals of Keisamthong and Sangaiprou had organised a social service twice recently and the one organised today is the last service before the commemoration day.
He added, "Under the initiative of the State Government, a 9ft 2 inches long statue of Haipou Jadonang will be erected in the park by November this year.
By next year, we can pay floral tribute to the statue of Haipou Jadonang and commemorate in a meaningful way" .
