February 15: Lui-Ngai-Ni

Lui-Ngai-Ni is an agrarian festival celebrated annually on February 15 in the northeastern state of Manipur, India, primarily by the Naga tribes. The festival serves to unite various Naga communities, including Mao, Tangkhul, and Anal, among others. It is marked by traditional customs such as wearing traditional clothing, drumming, and dancing to folk songs, creating a vibrant atmosphere of merriment. The festival's name reflects its cultural diversity, incorporating words from three different Naga languages that signify "seed sowing festival." Lui-Ngai-Ni is a time for the Naga people to seek blessings from the god of crops for a fruitful harvest. Schools, offices, and businesses may close in Manipur to allow for the celebrations, which are deeply rooted in age-old traditions.
