Ambassador of Japan to India, Hiroshi Suzuki and Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu inaugurated the Kohima Peace Memorial and laid the foundation stone of Eco Park Kohima.
The Kohima Peace Memorial and Eco Park represent a collaborative effort between the Government of Japan and the Japanese International Corporation Agency with the Government of Nagaland.
The Japanese remember the “Battle of Kohima” as one of the most devastating battles of World War II, along with the “Battle of Imphal”.
In 2023, a Japanese organization called ARMS signed an MOU with Nagaland University to establish a Japanese language course in Kohima.
This year is being celebrated as the 80th Anniversary of the Battle of Kohima.
