THADOU INPI MANIPUR: CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE
Khalvontawi Online news marks over One Million Page Visits – A Note of Thanksgiving
WITH hearts full of gratitude, we thank the Almighty for His unfailing grace and guidance upon Khalvontawi News. As our online news platform has been visited one million times (1,004,949) we pause to reflect and give thanks for this milestone.
What began as a small initiative has grown into an independent voice for the voiceless — telling stories of truth, hope, and justice from Northeast India. Through reports and features in Zo kindred dialects and English, we continue to speak for those whose voices are often unheard.
This achievement belongs not to us alone, but to every reader, contributor, and well-wisher who has stood with us. Your trust, encouragement, and constant support inspire us to serve better each day.
At Khalvontawi News, we believe journalism is not just about headlines; it is about giving light where silence exists, building understanding, and fostering unity. As we move forward, we renew our commitment to truth, fairness, and community service.
May this Thanksgiving remind us all to be grateful — not only for the blessings received but also for the chance to serve through honest words and meaningful stories.
With heartfelt thanks,

5 Chin fighters killed in Junta Firing
Five Chin resistance fighters have lost their lives in two days of intense fighting against Myanmar’s Tatmadaw (SAC Junta) forces along the Kalay-Gangaw route.
On October 28, two Chin National Army (CNA) soldiers — Mr Van Za Hmung and Mr Biak Hnin Thang — were shot dead during a heavy exchange of fire with junta troops.
Earlier, on October 26, three members of the Mizo Chin Rifles (MCR) — Lalbiakthuama, Lalrinthanga, and Lian Za Uk (Liantea) — were killed by bullets fired by the SAC forces in the same area.
The ongoing civil conflict in Myanmar has continued to cause severe suffering among innocent civilians. Thousands of families, including children, women, and the elderly, remain displaced, helpless, and insecure amid relentless military operations.
The Myanmar military regime continues to tighten its control with brutal force, deepening the country’s humanitarian crisis.
The international community is urged to strongly condemn these ongoing atrocities and to stand with the people of Myanmar in their struggle for freedom and justice.

Traditional Thangkhal Tau: A Watchtower for Protecting Ripening Crops
This photo shows a traditional Tau or Tautung, a simple watchtower built on a small hillock to protect the crops. Made from wooden poles, bamboo and a small roof of tarpaulin and woven mats, it stands tall above the fields. Mr. Jeffrey C. Thangkhal is sitting on the platform, keeping watch over the nearly ripe rice below. The bright blue sky and golden paddy create a peaceful village scene.
A Tau is used to guard the fields from birds, animals and rodents that come to eat the ripening grains. During harvest season, these pests become more active, so the farmers take turns sitting on the Tau. From this high point, they shout loudly or make noise to scare them away. It is a simple but effective method of protecting the year’s hard work. This photo captures an important part of traditional Thangkhal farming life, where people rely on skill, patience and community effort to keep their crops safe.
In this Tau, you will find triangular tin sheets called sok. When the wind blows, these tin sheets knock against each other and make a clattering sound. This noise helps to scare away the birds and animals.
In the old days, farmers tied a long rope, called Sok-khaau, from the Tau down to the lower part of the field (corn, maize or wheat). When someone pushed or pulled this rope, the sok would make a rattling noise, which frightened birds and other animals from the crops.
Today, some farmers use a wooden cross dressed in old clothes to look like a man or woman. This acts as a scarecrow to keep birds, rodents, and other animals away. Some even cover the cross with straw to make it look more frightening.
In short, the sok can be described as an “alarming bell” used by farmers in the Thangkhal hills.

Traditional Thangkhal Rice Grinding Method: Ansuh
In the photo, Mr Jeffrey C. Thangkhal is grinding rice in Sum, an old wooden platform traditionally used by the Thangkhals. He holds a long wooden pole called Suk, lifting it high and striking it down to crush the grains. This method of grinding—known as “Ansuh”—has been practised by the Thangkhal community for generations. Behind him stands a simple village house made of bamboo and tin sheets, with everyday household items placed on the porch, showing the humble lifestyle of remote villages.
This traditional way of preparing food was once the daily routine of many families. Using the Suk and Sum, they would grind rice, wheat, maize, gooseberries, and Khawngma. Today, the practice is slowly fading, found only in far-flung settlements.
“I was using these grinding tools during my teenage life as there was no rice mill,” said Mr Jeffrey C. Thangkhal, recalling the hard yet memorable times of his youth.

A Joyful Harvest in Thangkhal Hills
Thangkhal Community Harvest Day: A Joyful Tradition in the Hills
A warm look at the Thangkhal community’s harvest day, showing cutting, threshing, gathering and sharing food together in the peaceful hills of Thangkhal Land, 'Khalgam'.
THESE photos show a beautiful harvest day in the hills, where the Thangkhal community gathered to reap the fruits of their yearlong hard work. The sunny hillside is filled with tall grass, small trees and scattered red wildflowers swaying in the breeze. Men and women walk through the field, cutting ripe rice plants with sickles as part of Buh-Aat, the first stage of harvesting.
In other photos, groups of people are seen spreading the rice on red sheets for Buhvel or Buhsat, where the grains are threshed and separated from the chaff. Large bundles of straw lie beside them, glowing warmly under the bright blue sky. Families and friends sit together on the ground, sharing simple food served on fresh green banana leaves. Children and elders alike join in, making the moment joyful and memorable.
As evening falls, the final picture shows the group sharing a warm meal under a single lantern, surrounded by the day’s harvest. This 'Bulak' (harvest) is a peaceful and heartfelt scene that reflects unity, tradition and gratitude.
