MANIPUR POLICE  There was no formal policing in Manipur, before the arrival of British. There was a system known as the ‘Lallup System’, which meant free labour of the people to the King. The people were allotted a plot of land for which they were not required to pay revenue, instead had to serve the state three months in a year or 10 days in every 40 days. This service of the people was used by the King in various parts of the administration such as guards, construction work and in providing some sort of informal policing. On April 27, 1891, during the reign of Maharaja Kulachandra Singh, the British Government took over the administration of Manipur after a decisive battle with the ruling Prince at Khongjom.

On the August 15, 1947, India became free. After 56 years, the Maharaja of Manipur

EMBLEM OF MANIPUR The State of Manipur is situated at the extreme border of  northeast India. It is bordered by Assam in the west, Nagaland in the north, Mizoram in the south and Myanmar in the east. Manipur is divided into nine districts. Documented history of Manipur begins with the reign of King Pakhangba (1665-’96) when the seven clans of the Manipuri society were unified. After the First Anglo-Burmese War (1824-1826) Burma had to cede it. It came under British rule as a princely state in 1891. Manipur was the last kingdom to be incorporated into British India. The state symbol or emblem of Manipur is a Kanglasha - Nongsaba, i.e. half lion and half dragon. It strongly resembles the Burmese Sar Mayee (long haired ox) and the Chinese Qilin (dragon-horse or unicorn).
