How To Reach Statue of Lamyanba Hijam Irabot

Jiribam, Manipur, India
The Monument Commemorating a Socio-Political Pioneer:The Statue of Lamyanba Hijam Irabot is a significant socio-political landmark in Jiribam, erected to honor the memory and legacy of Jana Neta Hijam Irabot (1896-1951), a towering figure in the political and social history of Manipur. Known as "Lam yanba" (Pioneer or Leader of the Masses), Irabot was a revolutionary social activist, politician, and a key leader who fought against colonial injustices and social evils. The statue stands as a powerful symbol of nationalism, self-respect, and the struggle for a just society, aiming to inspire the youth to uphold his ideals of equality and social progress. Its location in Irawat Square, a central gathering area, underscores its importance to the community. The monument serves as a focal point for political and cultural observances, particularly on his birth anniversary (September 30th) and the day he went underground (September 21st). It is a site of solemn respect and a platform for public discourse on the history and future of Manipur. Visitors are encouraged to reflect on the immense sacrifices made by leaders like Irabot for the people of the state. The square often hosts civic events and is a quiet meeting place on regular days. The memorial is a vital link to the history of the freedom movement and the political awakening in Manipur, distinguishing it as a historical and cultural destination rather than purely a recreational one.
