Manipur to honour unsung heroes who fought against British rule

Manipur CM N Biren Singh on Thursday stated that the state government was ready to recognise every unsung individual who fought against British rule and was involved in the freedom struggle as a martyr.

The CM said that everyone who contributed to India’s freedom struggle should be honoured.

CM Biren Singh said that after Narendra Modi became India’s Prime Minister in 2014, the Central government has taken up the initiative to recognize all the unsung players in India’s freedom struggle.

“Everyone who had contributed to attaining freedom by fighting against British rule is now being honoured,” he said.
