Japan gifted Manipur a museum of peace to mark the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Imphal, one of the fiercest battles of the Second World War.
About:
The Imphal Peace Museum was inaugurated at Red Hill, about 20 km southwest of Manipur’s capital Imphal. The museum is funded by the Nippon Foundation.
Some 70,000 Japanese soldiers, alongside those of Subhash Chandra Bose’s Indian National Army, died in battles with the British-led Allied forces in areas around Imphal and Kohima from March to June 1944.
The last of these battles was fought at Red Hill, where the Japanese War Memorial was built in 1994 to mark the 50th anniversary of the battle.
