In this connection, N Amarjhonson, secretary, AKSU said that the territorial integrity of Manipur has been challenged in many chapters of the State's history.
"Our forefathers have overcome every single challenge by fighting and laying down their lives for Manipur in numerous battlefields", he said.
Despite being aware of imminent defeat in the 1891 Anglo Manipuri War, bravehearts like Bir Tikendrajit, Thangal General, Pukhrambam Kajao and many others stood firm for Manipur and sacrificed their lives.
Once again in 2001, eighteen brave souls laid down their lives for the territorial integrity of the State during the Great June Uprising (June 18) and safeguarded the integrity of Manipur, he recalled.
In the present conflict, Kuki militants are challenging the integrity of Manipur and launching attacks on Meiteis by burning down their houses and committing various atrocities, he said.
Referring to those who have lost their lives, he said that the Langban Heisoi Chara Tamba has been offered in honour of the brave martyrs of the ongoing conflict.
