More than different opinions. More than contrasting stands. It comes much closer to conflicting stands and this is what is worrying. So it stands that the demand that a mechanism be put in place to regulate the inflow of non-local people into the soil of Manipur has met with different stands that border more on conflicting stands and this is best exemplified by the fact that the mortal remains of the nine people killed at Churachandpur in the protest after the three Bills were passed by the State Assembly on August 31 last year are still lying in state.

An incident that made me realise India is still a racist country

People from Northeast India have always been victims to racism in other parts of the country. Humans have classified themselves according to their cultures, caste, culture, skin complexions etc. This mere division is just to prove themselves stronger or superior. We should understand that there is only one race, and that is the human race. People become racist due to lack of respect and understanding of each other. I have been a victim of racism. People must know that there is a thick line between joke and offensive words. Students of northeast mostly pursue their studies in states like Delhi, Bangalore, Kolkata, etc. If one doesn’t feel safe in their country, then it shows the defects of a country.

Positive attitude and personality-Key to success

The foundation of success, regardless of our chosen field is attitude which is most important to every sphere of life, including one’s personal and professional life. Attitude is what’s inside that makes it go up like a balloon. This same principle applies to our lives. It is what’s inside that count. And what’s inside of us that make us go up is our attitude. It can also be defined as way of thinking or behavior.

Boycotting the visit of a political leader is acceptable. However bombing the visit of the particular leader cannot be accepted at all. Seen along this line, the boycott call issued by the Tangkhul Naga Long on the visit of the Chief Minister and some of his men to Ukhrul to inaugurate some projects is acceptable and can be seen within the tenets of democracy where people can lodge protest against the policy and programme of a Government. But not the violence that erupted and was seen all over Ukhrul town when the Chief Minister actually did pay the visit on October 24.

Joint Tourism Management Committees (JTMCs) – Grassroots solution to evolution of tourism sector in Manipur

It is not always bad or wrong to begin on a true sad note. Tourism in our state of Manipur is a victim of circumstances. Many issues like ad hoc bandhs, insurgency, in adequate infrastructure etc have negatively affected prospects of evolution of a sound tourism. If we look at the statistics of tourism especially the number of visitors (both domestic and foreign), it is abysmal.

Introduction

In the context of Manipur, the area under ginger cultivation is 2140 h with annual production is 3530 tonnes and productivity is 1.65 t/h which is very low.
