Lungthulien (anglicised: lung-thu-lin) is a Hmar village in Pherzawl district, Manipur, India. [3] As of 2011, the village has 304 households. [2] It was in the news in 2006 because the village's inhabitants had faced insurgency-related atrocities. Militants belonging to the United National Liberation Front (UNLF) and the Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP) attacked the villagers and extorted cash and goods from them. [4]
