A reproduced colonial-era map document titled.
"Kuki Hills - British Jampi Area Map,1907"
Heading:
"BOUNDARY OF JAMPI AREA", vide Map No. S.A.1/2020/385, Vide Lib/R138/S/1/12 - British Map of Jampi Area clearly indicating archival reference, consistent with British administrative map cataloguing.
Explicit textual identifiers on the document elements
Kuki Hills -
"BRITISH JAMPI AREA MAP, 1907"
* Source-style reference number included
* The map is visibly gridded, consistent with Survey of India / British military cartography
* Boundary description. (verbatim extraction).
The document explicitly defines the boundaries of the Jampi Area, not implied, but listed direction-wise:
EAST - Bunamei, Maram, Barak River, Karong, Senapati Bridge, Kangpokpi, Topakhul, Imphal River, Kanglatongbi, Sengmai (Sekmai), Koirengei, Mantripukhri, Kangchup and Mungde (Bungte) Chiru.
SOUTH - Yangoupokpi, Nungba, Lemjangbung, Kaopum (Khaopum) IB and Mungde (Bungte) Chiru.
WEST - Nengdam (Nongdam) Peak and Jeri (Jiri) River.
NORTH - Tamphong, Yangkhunow of Bokana and Tamphong.
What this proves historically
"Jampi Area" is not imaginary or modern. It is a formally bounded British administrative unit (1907).
Boundaries include Imphal River, Kangpokpi, Sekmai, Koirengei, Mantripukhri — areas often today claimed as "Valley-only".
Jampi Area squarely overlaps present-day Sadar Hills, Kangpokpi, Kangchup, Sekmai, Koirengei, Senapati axis = core Sadar Hills geography.
The map explicitly situates Jampi within "Kuki Hills". This directly rebuts narratives attempting to detach Sadar Hills from Kuki historical administration.
This is British evidence, not post-Independence political cartography; High probative value for constitutional submissions, historical rebuttals, annexures under public document principles
Legal/ evidentiary, "British Government Cartographic Record (1907) delineating the Jampi Area within Kuki Hills, with defined boundaries extending into present-day Sadar Hills region."
