Manipuri

Second coming of the Land of Christ in the offing

In 1947, when Angami Zapu Phizo raised the banner of Naga nationhood, it was based on the simple premise that the Nagas were neither under the Assamese nor Manipuri rulers and that the Britishers were the first to rule them, and by that account, when they leave the subcontinent, they should be left alone. Phizo, however, was aware that each Naga village or tribe exists as a republic of their own and that each had a different dialect and that the only visible and practical way to bring them together on a common platform was their faith in Jesus Christ.

Making a tangible difference

A sleepy village in Manipur has been turned into a thriving rural economy thanks to the efforts of a remarkable man.
