As done every year, the Irabot Celebration Committee is all set to observe its month-long Irabot Memorial celebration from September 1, under the theme "Save Manipur" .
Announcing this to media at Irabot Bhawan here today, N Mangi, Convener of Irabot Celebration Committee, stated that Hijam Irabot was a true Manipuri patriot who did not differentiate between the people of the hills and the plains and worked for the territorial integrity and the freedom of Manipur.
Since the works initiated by Irabot and his ideologies are becoming true with the passage of time, the Irabot Memorial celebration is once again all set to observe the memorial of the pioneering leader starting from September 1 next.
This year, the celebration would be held under the theme of "Save Manipur", he added.
The month-long observation would kick start with a public meeting on September 1 at Madan Mohan Community Hall at Kongba and it would be followed by various programmes, Mangi informed.
