Imphal, December 31 2019:
Culture Preservation Centre Imphal organised Maichou Ningshing Thouram at GM hall today.
MLA Kumbi AC S Bira graced the function as the chief guest while vice president of Thoubal Municipal Council Ak Sanatomba attended as the functional president respectively.
Floral tributes were paid to Maichous and late elders/forefathers of the State.
Speaking at the function, MLA of Kumbi AC S Bira said that Manipur was once a sovereign kingdom and the forefathers built a society and created all things necessary for survival like shelter, food etc.
With the end of kingship, the presence of Maichous also faded subsequently and now Manipur has become a part of a democratic country.
Underlining the importance and need to treasure the sacrifices and dedication of the forefathers, the MLA further maintained that the Maichou Ningshing Thouram is solely organised to commemorate them and their footsteps even though they have faded away from the face of this place.
