"Three things cannot be long hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth."
A masterpiece on the maestro from Manipur by a megaintellect .@Ram_Guha Circa 2008. #ratanthiyam #manipur
Those who don't know & appreciate the rich history of Manipur should read this masterpiece from one of the best intellectuals of our time .@Ram_Guha This 2008 article on #Manipur & its golden boy #RatanThiyam is more relevant today. telegraphindia.com/opinion/a-maes… Let peace be restored!
Arts have no boundaries. This young girl Gunchenbi sang famous Bengali songs 'Ore Grihobasi' & 'Bela Boye Jai' to bedridden legend #RatanThiyam, who had always acknowledged that his views & forms of art were influenced by the idea of Cultural Renaissance of Bengal. A true Meitei
The world was his stage, and he left it more human, more alive, more true. A true human, artist, leader and thinker, and a LEGEND! .@nsd_india .@ANI .@IndianExpress .@the_hindu #ratanthiyam #ThaetreOfRoots
Ratan Thiyam often spoke of theatre not as a fixed tradition, but as a living organism—one that must evolve, adapt, and reflect the times, yet never lose its soul.
Ratan Thiyam, the legend and the pioneer of the “theatre of roots” movement, passed away this morning. Sharing a glimpse of his last play in Delhi on Feb 17, 2025 here. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. He will be in our heart forever. RIP #ratanthiyam #IndianArt

Can you hear this Mr CM? @himantabiswa Will appreciate your clarification regarding your remark on people from Manipur encroaching land in Assam. Who are they actually? Why you have to name a state @IndiaTodayNE @assamtribuneoff @ndtv @govt_of_manipur @ANI youtu.be/WilvO3NZYXs?si…
Your argument sounds too Kukiish. The Kuki societal system believes that if a person lands in a place, he automatically becomes the 'Head' of that place. You covered a story & no one can touch it? Btw, do you have the number of a certain Jangboi Ms @jeegujja?

Thanks to a Land Law so complex, it would require a priest, a lawyer, a magician & multiple pegs of whisky to interpret. Surely this is not the first & last case of such 'mystery' in mystic #Manipur. In my thought process I am just wondering how could I become a certain Jangboi!

Where are these beloved eeyambas of Phynyx (Phoenix) these days? There was a time when the band, in a sense, defined multi-ethnic Manipur. Len Gangte (Kuki), Vivek Sharma (Meitei), Ringo Golmei (Naga), Bobby Nameirakpam (Meitei). Nutan, Gouhao, Khup, Sando... Feel sad for them.
Today it's Bangladesh, tomorrow it's going to be Manipur-when fundamentalists take over! #satyajitray India tells Dhaka to reconsider Ray ancestral home demolition, offers help to repair indianexpress.com/article/india/… .@tathagata2 .@eOrganiser .@abpanandatv .@ANI @ndtv .@IndianExpress

Given the massive influx of illegal immigrants into #Manipur, it's inevitable that the region's historical sites & economy will undergo significant changes. Current corrupt Meitei politicians & self-seeking CSO leaders will do little. Only a public uprising could save #Kangleipak

After 11 players from #Manipur contributed immensely in making India qualified for the AFC Women's Asia Cup 2026 after 23 years, it's time to showcase their talents by the youngsters. Ten players from the state feature in the squad for AFC U-20 Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers 2025.
