The event began with a group flok song followed by a speech from artist Naorem Rajendro Singh.
Addressing the gathering, M Joy Singh recalled the contributions and sacrifice made by Paona Brajabashi who stood up to the mighty British forces and fought valiantly to safeguard Manipur's freedom.
The Commissioner also stressed on the need for further studies into historical events like the Khongjom War 1891 to get the facts instead of relying solely on British documentations of the history in the London Gazette.
