A group of 18 students from the Department of National Security Studies, Manipur University, successfully completed a six-day educational field trip to Tawang and the border areas, gaining invaluable insights into the strategic, historical, and cultural significance of the region.

Their visit to the Maj Bob Khathing Museum of Valour was especially significant, instilling immense pride in one of Manipur’s greatest sons, whose contributions to Tawang and the nation remain an enduring inspiration.
The educational tour concluded on a highly enriching note, equipping students with first-hand knowledge of India’s border regions, their strategic importance, and the developmental efforts being undertaken, an Army release issued today said.
