Kuki Inpi Manipur

The Kuki Inpi is the traditional form of local government of the tribal Kuki people. While it exists at the village level, higher levels of Kuki Inpi at the district or the state levels are also formed depending on need. Kuki Inpi Manipur is a prominent state-level organisation in the state of Manipur. After becoming dormant in the early 20th century, it was revived in 1993 in order to safeguard the Kuki people against ethnic conflicts. It currently functions as a social network of the leaders of the community.
