Are the two communities GOD's own SIAMESE TWINS?

What’s common between Bishnupriya Manipuris and the Meities? Why there are similarities

Culturally the Meiteis and the Bishnupriya Manipuris cannot be distinguished from each other. As to religion it goes without saying that these two sections have formed a unique religion. The Bishnupriya Manipuris accepted all the prominent Gods of the Meiteis, namely Sorarel, Pahangpa ,Senamahi , Apokpa and others, just as the Meiteis adopted numerous Hindu Gods. As the next step when the Vaishnavism of Sri Chaitanya entered Manipur, all these two sections, excepting some spurious cases, adopted the religion. This religion brought a radical change in the Manipuri Society and both the Meiteis and the Bishnupriya Manipuris were equally influenced by it.

Sunday lunch with the first Bishnupriya Manipuri pass out from Indian Institute of Technology - Mr. Joysen Jit Rajkumar -

It wasn’t a usual Sunday for me. No ritualistic waking up at 12 am; no listening to Frank Zappa; no romantic walk with my wife to the second hand book store at PVR that we do oh so religiously, every Sunday; no cans of beer!

Take another Oscar Mr. Boyle – By Henryy Sinha

Dear Mr. Boyle, Firstly apologies for not being immediate on my appreciation towards your brilliant piece of cinematic work. I know I am terribly late but not to worry, it can be compensated. Just lend me your eyes for a bit Sir and for God’s sake it’s my fervent plea that you allow me to speak my mind, in this tone, without viewing it as an attempt to sound abrasive. Please understand it’s just yesterday I am just over with Aravind Adiga’s White Tiger. Therefore I expect you to find the tone, the frustration, the hope of this letter as nothing but natural ramifications of the book. ======================== Click here to know more :)

If the Loktak cries for us, why are we called the Mayangs?

Why the terms ‘Mayangs’ and ‘Khais’?
The term Bishnupriya Manipuri has become an apple of discrepancy between the Meiteis and Bishnupriya Manipuris. The Meiteis hold that they are the real Manipuris inhabiting the land while the Bishnupriya Manipuris are the descendants of some Bengalis who entered the land only a few years back. Accordingly, they call the Bishnupriya Manipuris ‘Mayang’, i.e., foreigners or westerners. On the contrary Bishnupriya Manipuris hold that they are the real Manipuris inhabiting the land from the time of Mahabharata war and that the Meiteis are the descendants of some immigrants from the surrounding hills to the valley. They accordingly call the Meiteis “ Khais” i.e., the people of the Chinese group.
