Bishnupriya Manipuri Online

From our Special Correspondent SILCHAR, September 18: 85 Bishnupriya Manipuri language teachers of various schools in Cachar, Karimganj and Hailakandi districts, who were not receiving their salaries for the last 27 months since the very date of their joining, have at last been relieved.

This culture must be continued for the full year, only to be renewed during the next festival; but how far it is possible ? We are just trying to safeguard our social custom and traditions. We have sent satellites into space and achieved a global presence in the field of IT. Despite this , o...
