History
The idea of establishing Manipur College arose on May 25, 1958, during a meeting of the Managing Committee of Singjamei Girls High School. Held in the courtyard of Sarungbam Babu Singh's residence, under the chairmanship of Shri Sanasam Gourahari Singh from Singjamei Sanasam Leikai, who was then the Secretary to Manipur Administration. A committee of seven members was formed, including Shri Pangambam Chaoba Singh, Shri Ningombam Iboton Singh, Shri Thounaojam Iboyaima Singh, Shri Thongram Haridas Singh, Shri Chongtham Nodiachand Singh, Shri Thokchom Lukhoi Singh, and Shri RK Tomalsana Singh. Subsequently, on August 6, 1958, the Committee organized a Public Meeting at Singjamei Girls High School, chaired by Shri L.M. Ibungohal Singh, a retired District and Session Judge. At this Public Meeting, it was resolved to establish the college and a Governing Body consisting of 15 members was formed to oversee its affairs. This marked the inception of Manipur College, now one of the largest colleges in North East India.[2]
