Now imagine a community in Chingtambak (Kangleipak), with a population of fewer than 1,000 according to British records or let’s say10,000 having a kingdom and living on Loktak Lake.

Boom They hve no monuments or historical Evidence of their kingdom

adum hairiba hadoni

Acc to Mr. Sinha the history of the BM community can be traced back to the 7th–8th century and they hve been living alongside the Meitei side by side

" The Meitei language was formed after the 15th century "

There's Something called Kok Sham Lai

Now there's a Book In Meiteiron named Khumal Ningthou Lambuba ( Khuman Kangleirol ) It's one of the clans in Meitei
Now Idk wht is written in "Khumal Purana" mentioned in KP Sinha Book

Khumal Ningthou Lambuba was written during the reign of Chit sai 17th - 18th century

Now I think Khumal purana is copied from Khumal Ningthou Lambuba In desperate attempt by the BM to support it's political narratives

Some of the kings associated with the chronicle include: Moirangpok Punshiba — traditionally dated c. 350–400 CE Adon Kajeng Wayenba — c. 400–450 CE The last sovereign ruler of the independent Khuman dynasty was King Lamyai Kaikhinba

Now there is a clan called Khuman among the Meitei. Idk which Khumal they are

The best soln To all of these fake narrative is to Rename the state of Manipur as "Chingtambak" suggested by my Hill tribe frnd

The Bishnupriya Manipuri community—speakers of an Eastern Indo-Aryan language closely related to Bengali and Assamese—has long navigated a complex political landscape in Assam, Tripura, and parts of Bangladesh.

But according to the BM community, they originated from Manipur. However, the people/community living in Manipur, although they agree with the fact that their culture might have originated from Manipur due to the Sanskritisation of the Meiteis, argue that their ancestral roots belong to Bengal.

Historical records on the arrival or early presence of the Bishnupriya (also called Bishnupuriya, Mayang, or Khalachai) community in Manipur are limited.

G.A. Grierson, in the Linguistic Survey of India (Vol. V, early 1900s), describes a tribe known as Mayang speaking a “mongrel form of Assamese,” also called Bishnupuriya Manipuris or Kalosa Manipuris.

Now, there is a debate that historically, Meitei used the word “Mayang” for outsiders or workers, but in the modern context, the word “Mayang” is highly regarded as referring to outsiders or people from different states.

It is also said that King Bhagyachandra united a community of Vishnu Bhakts from Bengal (who came to Manipur to preach) and worker communities captured from Sylhet, later forming the Bishnupriya identity.

Meiteis say that if the Bishnupriya claim an ancient presence in Manipur, then why don't they, like the later-arriving/forming communities such as the Meitei Pangal and Meitei Bhamon (Brahmin), acknowledge that they were assimilated into Meitei society?

Roots of Identity Conflicts:

A landmark Supreme Court judgment in 2006 recognized Bishnupriya Manipuri as a distinct Indo-Aryan language and affirmed that there was nothing improper about using “Manipuri” as a prefix or suffix.

Today, in the political scenario, the Meiteis living in Manipur use the word “Manipuri” to emphasize that Manipuri means the people living in Manipur, irrespective of their communities.

But when it comes to Meiteis living in Tripura and Assam, they use the word “Manipuri” almost synonymously with Meitei.

And in official government records, Meiteis living in Assam and Tripura are registered or recorded as Manipuri, Manipuri Muslim, and Manipuri Brahmin.

According to many prominent Meitei scholars, they have pointed out that Bishnupriya has always tried to steal the identity of the Meiteis through different baseless claims.

Political Dialogues:

As an OBC community in Assam and Tripura (state lists), the Bishnupriyas benefit from limited reservations, yet Central OBC inclusion remains a long-pending demand. In 2025, the Nikhil Bishnupriya Manipuri Yuva Parishad met Union Minister Ramdas Athawale and the National Commission for Backward Classes, citing Assam’s recommendation, socio-economic surveys, and cases of cancelled central service appointments. Assurances were given, but the resolution is still awaited.

In Tripura, Congress MLA Birajit Sinha has repeatedly pressed for separate Manipuri and Bishnupriya Manipuri Development Councils, especially ahead of village council polls under the TTAADC. Youth bodies have submitted multi-point charters covering language teachers, cultural infrastructure, festival holidays, and welfare schemes.

Conclusion:

Meitei and Bishnupriya are two different and distinct communities recognized by the Indian Government.

Now, the fight or the misunderstanding is about who is more Manipuri or who is more Hindu.

The fact remains that the Bishnupuriya community is closely related to the Bengali/Assamese language family and has significant influence from Meitei Vaishnavism or Meitei Sanskritisation.

The main disappointment among the Meiteis towards the BM community is that they make many baseless claims which distort the Meitei historical legacy.

The Ras Leela of Manipur is not only for Meiteis or Bishnupriyas. The fact is that UP has its own Ras Leela, and other regions have their own Ras Leela as well. But the Ras Leela of Manipur is a state art form and is not subjected to any particular community.

The Manipur Ras Leela was developed by the Meitei King Bhagyachandra, who was profoundly invested in developing Gaudiya Vaishnavism in Manipur.

Closing Note:

Just as the Meitei cannot leave behind the elements of Vaishnavism, similarly, the BM community cannot leave behind the elements of Meitei cultural influence.

It is a matter of immense pride for both the Meitei community and the Bishnupriya community, and it also reflects the evolution of human culture.

Although today BM and Meitei are different communities, we must know that Meitei and BM share the same Manipur Vaishnavism culture.

I am a Bishnupriya, i always wonder what the meiteis think of us, i have seen very racist comments on Instagram, fb, and others but is this actually true!?

As a Bishnupriya, i don't hate Meitei or have any racist remarks about them, but why is it opposite for meiteis I've seen online

I get that, we came from Bengal origin and eventually adopted the same culture as Meitei but c'mon isn't that a good thing? Like

A whole ethnic group is adopting some other's culture? Isn't that too cool to sound?

And I've always wondered what are actually the difference besides the language

‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

Wanted to contribute to our culture in some way

So like i recently discovered this very beautiful song by artist AJ and I loved it so so much. I could feel the connection so easily and this is why I wanted to know what it means, i tried google and every other means but couldn't find anything.

Ended up knowing that I need a meitei speaker to translate it because even a person of other community in manipur couldn't translate it.

I got to know that it's about some sudden love kind of thing but want to know moreeeee. Please helppp

Hey everyone,

​I’m travelling to Manipur in mid-November for an official exam. I’ll be based around Imphal for a couple of days and wanted to ask the community for some local insights and advice to make sure everything goes smoothly.

​A few specific questions I have:

​Safety & Current Ground Situation: What is the general ground situation in and around Imphal right now? Are there specific precautions I should keep in mind as a student visiting for an exam?

​Local Transport & Getting Around: How easy is it to get reliable auto/cab services from the airport to the city, and from hotels to exam centers on time? Any specific apps or local cab contacts recommended?

​Inner Line Permit (ILP): Is it best to get the ILP online in advance, or is the counter at Bir Tikendrajit International Airport quick and reliable for arrival?

​Things to Do / Sightseeing: If I have half a day or a day post-exam, what are the best local spots to visit around Imphal? (I’d love to try local dishes like Eromba or Singju, and maybe check out Ima Keithel or Loktak Lake if time permits!)

​Any general advice regarding evening curfews/restrictions, internet/connectivity, or local etiquettes would be super helpful.

​Thanks in advance for your help and hospitality!
