Imphal:
The Manipur Government is gearing up to construct a Hao Keithel (Tribal market) in Manipur’s Imphal, which will accommodate women vendors from all the tribal communities of the state.
Referring to the market as an “epitome of unity”, Chief Minister N Biren Singh noted that the women of Manipur are pillars of the state’s economy, who always stood on the frontline.
All the tribal communities would be accommodated and collectively sell their products, immensely contributing to promoting Manipur’s indigenous products.
Notably, seven Ima markets have already been constructed across different districts. While another five such markets in the remaining districts are currently in the pipeline.
