Jiribam district lies in the valley between the Bhuban range on the west (in Assam's [[Cachar district]]) and the Vangai range (also called "Vangaitang") in the east. The [[Barak River]] flows due north in the valley from [[Tipaimukh]], turning west near [[Jiribam]]. The [[Jiri River]] flows south, draining into the Barak River, a little distance to the south of Jiribam.


The area of Jiribam district appears to have been part of the [[Dimasa Kingdom|Cachar kingdom]] at the beginning of the 19th century. After annexing the kingdom in 1832, the British made an agreement with Raja [[Gambhir Singh]] of Manipur ceding all claims to the territory up to the western stretch of Barak River{{efn|The Barak River flows south till [[Tipaimukh]] and then makes an almost 180°-bend to flow north till Jirimukh. The region between these two stretches might have been contested between Manipur and Kachar prior to 1833.}} and the Jiri River. Thus the eastern portion of the Jiribam valley came under the control of Manipur, while the rest remained under [[Cachar]] which became part of Assam.<ref>

Soon afterwards, Manipur merged into India and was governed under the [[Constitution of India]] as a [[union territory]].{{efn|In 1950, it was termed a Part 'C' state, later changed to 'union territory' in 1956.}} The territory of Manipur was divided into 8 subdivisions, one of which was based at Jiribam.

In 1969, when Manipur was divided into five districts, the southern part of the Jiribam subdivision was separated into the Tipaimukh subdivision of the 'Manipur South' district (now in [[Pherzawl district]]), while the northern part was added to the 'Manipur Central' district headquartered at Imphal.<ref>

Jiribam District (Meitei pronunciation: /jee-ree-baam/) is a district in the state of Manipur, India. It was created in December 2016 from the Imphal East district.[1]

Jiribam district lies in the valley between the Bhuban range on the west (in Assam's Cachar district) and the Vangai range (also called "Vangaitang") in the east. The Barak River flows due north in the valley from Tipaimukh, turning west near Jiribam. The Jiri River flows south, draining into the Barak River, a little distance to the south of Jiribam.

The area of Jiribam district appears to have been part of the Cachar kingdom at the beginning of the 19th century. After annexing the kingdom in 1832, the British made an agreement with Raja Gambhir Singh of Manipur ceding all claims to the territory up to the western stretch of Barak River[a] and the Jiri River. Thus the eastern portion of the Jiribam valley came under the control of Manipur, while the rest remained under Cachar which became part of Assam.[3][4]

The Jiribam Valley was at that time forested and mostly uninhabited.[5] The Cachar portion of the valley had a ferry port at Jirighat, which was used by the travellers on the Silchar–Manipur road (called "Cachar Road" in Manipur).[6] The Manipur state government decided to open the valley for agricultural settlement in 1907,[5] and by 1911, 14,346 bighas of land is said to have been settled.[7] Rice and sugarcane were cultivated, and betel leaf (pan) in areas unsuitable for rice cultivation.[7]

By 1931, there were 46 villages in the Jiribam settlement, populated by Manipuri (Meitei) Hindus and Muslims, Bengali Hindus and Muslims, a few Kukis and Kabuis.[5] Jiribam also had 5 primary schools, the same number as in the Imphal Valley outside the city of Imphal.[8] Most of the settlers in Jiribam came from the Cachar district, very few from the Imphal Valley (Manipur valley).[5] This meant that the settlers had to be treated as 'British subjects' rather than 'Manipur state subjects' and revenue settlement orders and dispute resolutions had to be carried out by the British Political Agent.[9]

After the independence of India, Manipur elected a legislative assembly under its own constitution. Ten seats in the assembly were allocated to the hill areas, which included Jiribam.[10] Soon afterwards, Manipur merged into India and was governed under the Constitution of India as a union territory.[b] The territory of Manipur was divided into 8 subdivisions, one of which was based at Jiribam. The Jiribam subdivision covered the Vangai range, and stretched up to Tipaimukh in the south.[11] It was designated as a hill subdivision.[12]

In 1969, when Manipur was divided into five districts, the southern part of the Jiribam subdivision was separated into the Tipaimukh subdivision of the 'Manipur South' district (now in Pherzawl district), while the northern part was added to the 'Manipur Central' district headquartered at Imphal.[13] [14][15] This also meant that Jiribam became part of the valley area of Manipur, rather than hill area.[10] To avoid the anomaly, the eastern part consisting of the Vangai range was transferred to the Tipaimukh subdivision.[16] With the reorganisation of 'Manipur Central', Jiribam got attached to the Imphal East district. In 2016, Jiribam subdivision became an independent Jiribam district.[17]
