Pherzawl Administrative Headquarters
The Pherzawl Administrative Headquarters is the official seat of governance for the newest district of Manipur, created in December 2016 by carving out sub-divisions from Churachandpur district. It houses the offices of the Deputy Commissioner (DC), the Superintendent of Police, and other key depart ments necessary for the administration and development of the district. The physical headquarters is located in the Pherzawl village, which serves as the district capital. The headquarters symbolizes the government's reach into the remote, hilly terrain, aiming to deliver efficient public services, manage resources, and oversee infrastructure development like roads (NH-150) and utilities. While not a conventional tourist spot, it is the logistical and communications hub for anyone traveling to or working in the region, including tourists who may need to obtain permits or seek assistance. The establishment of the HQs has driven the modest growth of the village into a small, functional town.
