Close to 100 guests attended the luncheon held at the prestigious NGV Club premises in the heart of the city. The event was a sincere effort, devoid of any political motive to cohabit and celebrate the harmony within cultural diversity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">True to the essence of Ningol Chakauba, all the \u2018ningols\u2019 came adorned in best of their traditional attire- exquisite mix of \u2018enaphi\u2019 and choicest \u2018Phanek\u2019, some with kids tagged along and others much on their own. Nevertheless, all were welcomed and guided inside, making sure no one entered unattended. The much awaited feast, including classic dishes like \u2018sareng thonba, shinju, ataoba thonba any many more were earnestly prepared by the volunteers themselves to retain the traditional touch. Aslo, in the most customary way, organizers ensured all the \u2018ningol\u2019 were presented with a small \u2018dokhina\u2019(gift) knowing very well that a Ningol Chakaoba is never complete without \u2018Dokhina\u2019 presented to the \u2018ningol\u2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cFirst time I have attended an event like this and I\u2019 am really happy to be a part. Next year also I wish to attend\u201d a non-meitei guest expressed his views when asked. \u201cEvent like this gives us an opportunity to meet, celebrate and introduce our customs and traditions to others\u201d said a lady guest. Many guests echoed same views of replicating the success in coming years and organizing a bigger and better event. &#8211; Ms. Roopa, one of the ningols.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\">Read more \/ Original news source: <a href=\"http:\/\/kanglaonline.com\/2013\/11\/ningol-chakaoba-in-bangalore\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=ningol-chakaoba-in-bangalore\">http:\/\/kanglaonline.com\/2013\/11\/ningol-chakaoba-in-bangalore\/?utm_source=rss&amp;utm_medium=rss&amp;utm_campaign=ningol-chakaoba-in-bangalore<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ningol Chakaoba in Bangalore: A melting pot of diverse ethnic group: A small Ningol Chakauba event organized by a group of enthusiastic Meities in Bangalore successfully marked the seemingly meitei festival into a cross-culture event by bringing together members of &#8230; <a href=\"http:\/\/kanglaonline.com\/2013\/11\/ningol-chakaoba-in-bangalore\/\">Continue reading <span>&#8594;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,4],"tags":[43,330,100],"class_list":["post-69042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-kanglaonline","category-news","tag-k-featured","tag-kanglaonline-2","tag-press-release"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69042\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.manipur.org\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
