Catching Fish in the Rice Paddy in the Village in Ukhrul District, Manipur - Video

In this video, we share our day of village life at the paddy field catching fish with our family and cooking and having lunch together in Ukhrul district Manipur. This was Susan's first time visiting our paddy field and experiencing catching fish and collecting paddy snails.
This video is part of the picnic that we as a family went.

The Tangkhul Naga Tribe lives mostly in the Indo- Myanmar- Border area occupying the Ukhrul District of Manipur. According to Meitei dialect, “Tangkhul” can also be interpreted as ‘costly village’.

Tangkhuls are the village loving people. Right from the beginning, every Tangkhul village had been a well organized and independent political unit. Within its territory, every village enjoyed both internal as well as external independent of its own. The villages were guided by their customary and traditional laws. Most of the Tangkhul village sites were located near the spring or stream to ensure them dependable supply of drinking water. Another most important factor responsible for determining the location of a village was the security. They fulfilled all those criteria of a full-fledged state by possessing population, definite territory of their own and sovereignty of both internal as well as external. They were a self-sufficient and politically well organized democratic state. Most of the Tangkhul villages are thickly populated.
