U Kiang Nangbah was a Jaiñtia freedom fighter from Meghalaya who led an uprising against the British. He was hanged by the British publicly at Iawmusiang in Jowai town in West Jaintia Hills district on 30 December 1862. Kiang Nongbah Monument was built in the honour of a Jaintia patriot by the name of U Kiang Nongbah who died as a martyr in the struggle to free the Jaintia land from the British rulers. This historical monument was built in the centre of a vast field known as Madiah Kmai Blai, which is on the banks of Syntu Ksiar, alongside river Myntdu. This field also has its own historical significance, as it is the place where U Kiang Nongbah had taken his oath to fight and drive the British out of their land without fearing any consequences.
