In the 18th century, under Meidingu Pamheiba, the sacred writings of Sanamahi religion, the Puyas, were collected and burned in front of the Kangla which is a sacred place of the Meitei and all the Sanamahi scholars were expelled to remote villages. This took place on 17th day of Mera (October)in 1732 in front of the Kangla Uttra and the Meitei were forcibly converted to Hinduism by the king.

Famous quotes containing the word threats:

    Southerners, whose ancestors a hundred years ago knew the horrors of a homeland devastated by war, are particularly determined that war shall never come to us again. All Americans understand the basic lessons of history: that we need to be resolute and able to protect ourselves, to prevent threats and domination by others.
    Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    Among the best traitors Ireland has ever had, Mother Church ranks at the very top, a massive obstacle in the path to equality and freedom. She has been a force for conservatism, not on the basis of preserving Catholic doctrine or preventing the corruption of her children, but simply to ward off threats to her own security and influence.
    Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)

    Do not extort money from anyone by threats or false accusation, and be satisfied with your wages.
    Bible: New Testament, Luke 3:14.

    John the Baptist to Soldiers.
