IMG_1077Rengkai: A national seminar on the proposed Tipaimukh Dam was held from December 13 to 14, 2010, here in Churachandpur district of Manipur.

Prominent personalities from the Hmar tribe and other stakeholders participated in the event discussing various aspects of the mega project.

Aptly titled, “Dialogue on Dam and Development”, the North EasternCouncil-sponsored two-day event organised by the Manipur University witnessed floods of ideas with regard to the controversial Tipaimukh dam on Tuoiruong (Barak) river. Resource persons from various walks of life talked about the past, present and future of the project.

“The proposed Tipaimukh dam can create avoidable misunderstanding,” said L Keivom in his speech on the opening day of the seminar. The retired foreign diplomat who graced the occasion as chief guest also opined that the project “needs to be reviewed” from all angles.

The Hmar Hills stretching along the Manipur-Mizoram bHmar Hills 3order is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. A home to the Hmar indigenous tribe, the region offers beautiful landscapes with a huge potential for promotion of eco-tourism industry. However, the irony is that the Hmar Hills, comprising Sinlung Hills in Mizoram, the Vangai Range and Hmarbiel in Manipur, is one of the most neglected parts of India where the government machinery has completely collapsed.

Inpui.com brings you some recent photos of the Hmar Hills!

Ei sui fie zuol theina dingin Saptawnga a hla thu hi a rengin zuk tarlang ei tih:

Many worldly kings have been reigned after ‘nother

But there’s none like the King Jesus Christ our Saviuor;

Saviour Lord was born at the manger of Bethlehem,

Oh rejoice in the Lord, He is the King of Kings.

Let the gald alleluia resound far and wide,

Men and angel sing loud and rejoice side by side;

“Glory be to the gracious and Almighty King”,

Glory we now proclaim and forever will sing.

Why should men on the earth be so gloomy and sad,

Since our dear Christ Redeemer made all men so glad;

When from dead and from sin He has set them free,

And has opened to them the gate of liberty.

When all sins now depart and is crushed by His grace,

The true life and true health comes at once in its place;

Then the angels and men filled with joy may sing,

As they see and adore Christ the newly born King.

On the earth out darkness shines now bright light,

Which the angels on high sing with joy on this day;

“Glory, glory to God and God’s peace to men,

May be now and forever, Amen and Amen”.

Saptawnga a hla ziek hi hei bi veng veng la, Mizo le Hmar tawnga mi leh chang khatna tlar thumna chena mi chauh an inang a, a dang po po khi an inang naw vawng. Zosap Mizo tawng thiemha’n Kamlal hlaphuok Saptawngin an inlet ti inla, Mizo/Hmar version leh hin an inang bawk si nawh.

Hieng anga hla tha, inthuk le thluk tha hi ro a tling tak zet a nih
