On this day, August 13, 1891, the British publicly executed Manipur royal Bir Tikendrajit and General Thangal in the park for waging war against the empire.

The day is considered a pivotal moment in Manipur’s history, which is why it is commemorated annually as “Patriots’ Day” to honour and remember the Manipuri freedom fighters who were executed during the Anglo-Manipur War.
