The correct option is A a) Khongjom parba
31 Ans.A
Explanation: The Khongjom day is observed on 23rd April every year to pay rich tributes to the great warriors who laid down their lives to safeguard the freedom of the land during the Anglo-Manipur of 1891. They are the martyrs of Manipur. Lack of unity among the ruling princes and the British interference in the affairs of the state were the key factors of the war. The Anglo-Manipur war was a great historical event. The military conflict was definitely a war between two independent countries, though the British looked at it as a rebellion. The historical facts (British imperial documentation and the Manipur chronicles and traditions perpetuated by a living ballad) point to the conflict as a war between two nations. Killing of five British officers including Mr James Wallace Quinton, the chief commissioner of Assam was the immediate cause of the war
