Inauguration of Hills Chiefs Guest House
In addition to the library halls, Chief Minister N Biren Singh announced the upcoming inauguration of the Hills Chiefs Guest House before the onset of the New Year. The guest house, named ‘Chinggi Ningthousinggi Thungpham Yum,’ is constructed with a vision to strengthen ties between the hills and the valley in the state.
Strategic Location and Funding
The Hills Chiefs Guest House, with an estimated cost of approximately Rs. 7 crore, is strategically positioned inside the Royal Palace complex in Imphal, funded by the North Eastern Council. Its location, in proximity to the Manipur Chief Minister’s Bungalow, symbolizes a commitment to fostering connections.
