When a soldier falls, a nation rises. The blood of the Zogam Sálpha—the Zomi fallen soldiers—flows into the soil of our homeland, consecrating it with a covenant of truth, justice, freedom, and peace. Their sacrifice is not forgotten. It is etched into the hills, whispered by the winds, and carried on the proud colors of the Zomi Flag.
The Sacred Sacrifice
Some give their time, some give their strength, but the Zogam Sálpha give their all. They traded comfort for cold nights in the hills, the laughter of family for the silence of duty, and in the final measure, life itself—for Zogam.
They are not merely soldiers. They are the eternal guardians of our nation’s soul, the silent watchmen of Zomi liberty. Every life laid down is a seed of hope, watered with blood, destined to bloom into freedom for generations yet unborn.
The People Who Stand Behind
For every fallen soldier, there is a mother who weeps, a father who grieves, a wife who waits, and children who grow up with only memories. Their tears, too, are sacrifices—tears that join the rivers of Zogam, reminding us that freedom is never free.
Yet, in this grief, the Zomi people find strength. Villages stand taller, families honor the legacy, and communities unite, knowing that the Zogam Sálpha died not in vain, but so that we may live as a free people.
The Banner of the Fallen: The Zomi Flag
Above every grave, in every battlefield, in every parade where boots march through rain and mud, the Zomi Flag waves proudly—red, yellow, and green.
- Red symbolizes the blood of the Zogam Sálpha, shed in sacrifice for the nation.
- Yellow represents hope, truth, and the guiding light of faith.
- Green stands for the land of Zogam itself—its hills, valleys, and the eternal inheritance of the Zomi people.
Together, these colors are more than a flag. They are the story of a people’s struggle, a people’s sacrifice, and a people’s undying will. When the Zomi flag is raised, it is not only a symbol of sovereignty but also a banner of remembrance, a declaration that the Zogam Sálpha live on in our unity.
The Legacy They Leave
The fallen did not die for conquest, but for dignity. They did not perish for division, but for unity. Their lives were the price of peace, their deaths the foundation of justice.
As the Zomi Political Coordination Council (ZPCC) guides governance in accordance with the Zogam Charter, and as the Zomi Revolutionary Army–Eastern Command (ZRA-EC) continues to protect the homeland, the memory of the Zogam Sálpha remains the heartbeat of the struggle.
The Zogam Charter itself declares: “There will be only one armed force bearing the name of Zomi, responsible for the security of Zogam.” That force is sanctified by those who have given their last full measure of devotion.
Eternal Flame of Zogam
From the battlefields of Tedim to the hills of Tonzang, from the valleys of Cikha to the towns of Kalay, the spirit of the Zogam Sálpha lives on. They are the eternal flame of Zogam—never extinguished, always burning, lighting the way toward freedom.
Every Zomi heart beats with their legacy. Every prayer, every flag raised, every word of unity, is a promise kept to them. And until Zogam is fully free, their watch continues.
May the Almighty grant peace to the souls of the Zogam Sálpha, strength to their families, and unity to the Zomi nation. May the Zomi Flag forever wave as their memorial in the wind.
