Manipur
Manipur (
Bengali: মণিপুর,
Meitei Mayek: mnipur) is a
state in northeastern
India making its capital in the city of
Imphal. Manipur is bounded by the Indian states of
Nagaland in the north,
Mizoram in the south and
Assam in the west; it also borders the country of
Myanmar to the east.The Meiteis, who live primarily in the state's valley region, are one of the primary ethnic groups. Their language,
Meiteilon (also known as Manipuri), is also the
lingua franca in the state. It was recognized as one of India's national languages in
1992. The Kukis and Nagas live in the hills of the state. The Kukis too have their own kingdoms like the Chahsat, Aisan,Jampi, etc. and were close to the Meitei kings in the plain. The independent existence of the Meitei and Kuki kings can be proved by common practice of calling Kuki village headmens by Meiteis as "Ningthou", which means "King".
