An Angami Naga man stands by a field growing "Rosolha," or ration rice, that was first provided by the British as ration after they bombed and burnt Kohima village during World War II in 1944, on the outskirts of Kohima village, in the northeastern Indian state of Nagaland, Tuesday, Aug. 18, 2020. Between April and June 1944, Japanese and British Commonwealth forces fought across Kohima and the villages around it in a battle that has been chosen as Britain's greatest battle by the National Army Museum, beating Waterloo and Normandy. 'Rosolha' was planted by Kohima villagers as they had no seeds even to grow after their village was flattened out. (AP Photo/Yirmiyan Arthur)
