Imphal/UNI: Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe is likely to visit Manipur on December 17 next to pay tribute to the Japanese soldiers killed during World War II in Manipur.

Japanese government has constructed “Imphal Peace Memorial” at Maibam Lotpa Ching, Bishnupur district where a major battle took place.

Chief Minister N Biren along with his Cabinet Ministers inspected the preparations being made for the visit of Shinzo Abe at Maibam Lotpa Ching, also known as Red Hill at Bishnupur District.
