Jairampur 1 March: Accidently, another historically significant ditch filled with WW-II remnants has been recovered here, today. The remnants were found while digging inside the house of a local resident in the main township just adjacent to Govt. Primary school at Jairampur. It is said that within the four circles namely Nampong, Jairampur, Manmao and Rima-Putok, such finding of importance has been sighted in several venues on several occasions but never in such huge quantities at one place. Earlier, such cases of discovery have been highlighted, materials like bullets, bottles, empty cans etc of WW-II era are commonly found while digging or tracking the woods.
