Stating that the Meiteis are converted Hindus, Masing Chalhoudraba Tami Phurup, has submitted a memorandum to HT Sangliana, vice-president of National Commission for Minorities, demanding exclusion of Manipuris from the general list of people in India.
A statement issued by the association claimed the Meiteis are not pure Hindus but the first mongoloids who settled in Manipur and were converted to Hinduism from their original Sanamahi religion.
It urged the commission to effect the exclusion of the people from the general list of categorisation.
