Chana and his household lived in a four-storied home known as ‘Chhuan Thar Run’ or New Era House. Through the years, it turned a vacationer hotspot, and his story was coated by worldwide media.

In 1942, Chana’s grandfather Khuangtuaha based a polygamous cult Chana Pawl or Chhuanthar. Chana carried it ahead and it now has about 2,000 followers, all of whom reside and work in a self-sustained unit round the home. About 400 households are a part of the cult.

Solely the bottom flooring of Chhuan Thar Run is open to guests. Chana, who lived on the highest flooring, didn’t meet anybody.
