For generations, the Meitei community in Bangladesh has nurtured its language, festivals, literature, and social traditions with deep pride. Families continue to speak Meiteilon, celebrate ancestral festivals, and maintain community institutions despite geographical distance from the Manipur valley.
Why Digital Documentation Matters
In modern urbanizing environments, young people increasingly consume digital media. When their own cultural folklore and music are absent from the platforms they visit daily, a subtle cultural disconnect can emerge. Eikhoigi Puwari is built precisely to counter this trend—ensuring our cultural history is indexed on the web, streaming platforms, and open research repositories.
We invite community members, researchers, and elders to share their family archives, rare manuscripts, and oral testimonies to enrich our collective repository.
