Explanation:

Battle of Kohima is considered as the turning point of the Japanese offensive, or Operation C mission launched in India in 1944 during the Second World War. The Battle of Kohima was fought in three stages from 3 April to 22 June 1944 around the town of Kohima in Nagaland in northeast India. The battle is often referred to as the “Stalingrad of the East”. Kohima was the theatre of the War in 1944 and the Nagas were drawn into it on both sides some with the British and some with the Japanese. Their contribution and support to the British is regarded as one of the factors which helped the British in winning the battle.
