Imphal, January 27, 2012:
As in previous years, Kabui Mothers' Association (KAMA), Manipur observed the 97th birth anniversary of Haipei Rani Gaidinliu at the hall of Zeliangrong Building yesterday.
The observance function was attended by Vice Chairman of IMC Thambaljao Phaomei as Chief Guest, Vice President of Zeliangrong Cultural Council (Assam, Manipur & Nagaland) Poujairung Thaimei as Guest of Honour and Cultural Secretary of KAMA Lujikluna as President.
Speaking as resource person on the occasion, General Secretary of Zeliangrong Cultural Council Chandra Haomei observed that it is unfortunate not many people of Manipur fail to understand the contribution made by Rani Gaidinliu, who took up arms and fought against British for the independence of Manipur.
Most of the people in Manipur say one thing and do another thing.
There is co-relation between their mouth and hands.
He also called upon all the communities in Manipur to shed their narrow parochial outlook and trace the footsteps of their forefathers together.
