Imphal, October 14 2025:
The Meghalaya Manipuri Welfare Society (MMWS) has expressed solidarity with organizations protesting the demolition of Manipur Rajbari at Shillong.
The society, in a press release issued by its president N Kriti, said the demolished building was the only monument that reminded Manipur of its proud history as an independent, culturally rich, and self-sustaining Nation with a historical legacy spanning over 2,000 years.
Expressing deep sorrow over the "mindless act" of demolishing the historically significant building, the society stated that during a visit to the ongoing projects at the Red Land premises, representatives of the firm/contractor assured them that the bungalow, where the Merger Agreement was signed, would not be demolished but restored and strengthened.
However, contrary to these assurances, the building has been demolished, the MMWS noted and urged the highest authorities to investigate the demolition of the Manipur Rajbari and implement a solution to address the deep hurt caused to the people of Manipur.
