DESCRIPTION
After the Manipur uprising of 1891 against the British Government in India. the Kuki Rebellin of 1917-1919 was one of the most significant political occurrences. The Kukis, who constituted one of the most powerful tribes of the Manipur, had revolted against the foreign domination. However, the immediate cause of the uprising was the partial recruitment of forced labour from the Kuki tribes, for services in Mesopotamia (present day Iraq) as the first Labour Crops.
