Imphal, December 01 2013 :
A book and a Compact Disk (CD) on Meeteilon rhymes and lullabies produced by NE Brothers Entertainment Private Limited were released in a function held at the Open Air Theatre of JN Manipuri Dance Academy here today.
The release function was attended by Joint Director of Language Planning and Implementation Dr Laishram Mahabir as Chief Guest and President of MEELAL S Tomba Mangang as President, while Convenor of Manipuri Language Advisory Board Prof H Behari and noted lyricist and writer B Jayentakumar as Guests of Honour.
Speaking on the occasion, Joint Director Dr Mahabir said that Meeteilon (Manipuri language) may one day become extinct if proper planning is not done to promote and preserve the language.
Rhymes and lullabies in Meeteilon would be of great help in familiarizing the language among children right from their early age, he noted.
