Nambol, January 29 2026: Assam Rifles organised 'A Day with Company Commander' at its Garrison in Nambol, Bishnupur district bringing together 36 Meira Paibis from Oinam, Heinoubok and Leimaram villages.

According to a release issued by the IGAR(South), the initiative aimed to strengthen bonds with the local community and foster mutual trust through meaningful interaction and shared experiences.

The programme began with a Yoga session led by an Assam Rifles instructor, supported by Patanjali Yog Samiti, Manipur, promoting physical fitness and mental well-being.

To enhance preparedness during public emergencies, officials and troops conducted an interactive session on crowd management, emphasising cooperation between Meira Paibis and security forces in maintaining law and order.

A First Aid class was also held, covering CPR, snakebite response and basic emergency care.

Participants were shown a commemorative video marking 150 years of 'Vande Mataram' and a motivational film on the ethos and values of the Indian Army.

Energised by the session, the group undertook a trek to Maibam Lokpa Ching (Red Hill), a historic World War II site.

Despite challenging terrain, Assam Rifles personnel assisted participants throughout, ensuring safety with hydration points.

At the summit, the Meira Paibis expressed pride in their achievement and enjoyed panoramic views of their villages.

The day concluded with a shared meal and group photograph, symbolising unity and camaraderie.

The Meira Paibis conveyed gratitude to Assam Rifles, reaffirming their commitment to work closely with the Force in maintaining peace and harmony in Manipur.
