Taothingmang and his elder brother Yoimongba performed a river dredging campaign. Taothingmang dredged the Iril River and Yoimongba dredged the Imphal River. Taothingmang while dredging the river, he encountered Phunal Telheiba at near Lilong. Taothingmang was injured by the arrow of Phunal Telheiba and after hearing the scrimmage, Taothingmang and Yoimongba went to village of Lokkha Haokha which is at Sugnu. [5]

After killing Kakyen Mingamba (probably personification of a raiding tribes), the village of Lokkha Haokha was liberated from the scourge of Kakyen Mingamba and the Lokkha Haokha was assimilated with the then Meitei society.[6]
