Many civil society organisations/bodies have conveyed their heartiest greeting and best wishes to the people of Manipur on the auspicious occasion of Nupi Lan, which falls on December 12 .
In separate releases, Manipuri Chanura Lieshem Marup (MACHA LEIMA), Ethno Heritage Council (HERICOUN) and Indigenous Mothers Association (IMAH) said that Nupi Lan is a landmark event in the history of Manipur and represents one of the popular agitations which fought against an extremely exploitation form of socio-economic and political system executed by the joint feudalistic colonial rule.
"Nupi Lan sowed the seeds of economic and political reforms for a new Manipur", said the organisations.
The organisations urged the people to remember the courage and spirit shown by the women who valiantly fought against the British forces in the two Nupi Lans of 1904 and 1939 .
The organisations also appealed to the people of Manipur to follow the path of these brave Manipuri mothers who stood up against injustice and fought for their rights for a prosperous & peaceful State.
