A little town in Manipur known as Moirang is well known as the cultural capital of Manipur. The Meitei community which is the dominant group lives around Loktak Lake. The people of the famous Thangjing Temple area were deprived of a Catholic institution. Some people of this beautiful land saw the work of Catholic missionaries in other parts of Manipur. They dreamt of having a Catholic school in Moirang itself. The people under the leadership of Shri. P Sharathchandra, IAS, requested the then Archbishop of Manipur, Rev. Dr. Joseph Mittathany, DD, to start a Catholic school in Moirang. The Archbishop accepted the proposal and was looking for a group of priests to venture into this part of Manipur.Later, when the Archbishop met Shri. P. Sharathchandra, IAS, again he assured that he would send a group of Catholic priests who are good educationists. This is how the Jesuits landed in Moirang
