    History

    Khonsa's history is deeply intertwined with the history of the Wancho tribe, who have inhabited this region for centuries. The area remained relatively isolated until recent times, with little influence from the outside world. The British administration's presence was minimal, and the region largely remained autonomous. Post-independence, Khonsa gradually became the administrative center of Tirap district. The town's growth has been slow and steady, with a focus on maintaining and preserving the tribal heritage. The local culture and traditions continue to play a significant role in the life of the people, making it a living testament to the region's rich past.
