Manipur to have museum on tribal freedom fighters

NEW DELHI: As part of the ongoing outreach to tribals that began with the announcement by the Centre to celebrate tribal freedom fighter Birsa Munda's birth anniversary on November 15 as "Janjatiya Gaurav Divas", home minister Amit Shah on Monday laid the foundation stone for setting up of the Rani Gaidinliu Tribal Freedom Fighters' Museum at Luangkao village in Manipur.
"While remembering the freedom fighters of the nation, we shouldn't forget the struggle of tribal freedom fighters who fought against colonial rule," he said. Shah also lauded the BJP government in Manipur for improving law and order in state.
