The second edition of Ke:míng Longa (Komsing Day) was commemorated with great patriotism at Riné Dé:ré, Komsing Kumku, in the Siang district on Tuesday. Known as Insurrection Day, it honors the bravery of those who fought during the Anglo-Abor Wars against British colonialism. This day also commemorates the historic assassination of British officer Noel Williamson by Lt. Matmur Jamoh on March 31, 1911, a pivotal event leading to the Fourth Anglo-Abor War. Arunachal Pradesh Minister Ojing Tasing, who was the chief guest, emphasized that Ke:míng Longa embodies a legacy of sacrifice, courage, and unity. The event was attended by local dignitaries including MLA Tapi Darang and members of the community. A walkathon from Karo Dé:ré to Riné Dé:ré also engaged the public in significant numbers, organized by the Komi Gumin Development Committee.
