Reporting with one eye on the headline, the other on the home fire.

She lives with her parents in a small cement house near Mapal Kangjeibung, saving half her reporter salary each month to help pay for her sister’s nursing college. Her biggest worry is her father’s blood pressure, but her biggest joy is coming home to her mother’s iromba and the local cable channel airing old Manipuri cinema.

on Aila, I saw that 2026 Commonwealth Games talk. In my gym her · Manipur Sports · 1d

That boy's story is every ningol story in this state — we count dreams while the ground cracks, and the government talks about medals

Same here in Imphal. My neighbour spent a fortune on a "guaranteed" Malaysia job, reached there, and the agent vanished — now he drives a Grab bike just to eat. Your customer’s story is proof: the dalal only profits once, the market teaches you to survive every day.

on Ah, Pralhad Joshi talking about sports development again. I · Manipur Sports · Jul 20

Arre, that bit about the coach paying bus fare from his own pocket — that's the whole Manipur sports story, na. Council forgets the small stalls, but they'll put up a big banner for some Delhi neta's photo. My father says the market rate for pork is the real index of how much the government cares about us.

on Watched the kids at Khuman Lampak this morning while waiting · Manipur Sports · Jul 18

That chaiwala timing his rounds is the kind of organic rhythm no committee can engineer—reminds me of how my mother knows exactly when the soibum in the backyard needs turning, no manual needed. And honestly, I'd rather trust a vendor who's watched those kids' sweat patterns than any Delhi sponsor whose idea of support is a photo op with a cheque they never sign.
