The first Manipuri language newspaper was called:

Meitei Leima
Kangleipak
Lamyanba
Manipur Times

The correct answer is: a) Meitei Leima.

Meitei Leima was the first Manipuri language newspaper. It was published from Imphal, Manipur, India from 1917 to 1920. The newspaper was founded by Hijam Irabot, a prominent Manipuri freedom fighter and social reformer. Meitei Leima was a weekly newspaper that published articles on a variety of topics, including politics, social issues, and culture. The newspaper was also a forum for the expression of Manipuri nationalism.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Kangleipak is a Manipuri word that means “Manipur”. It is not the name of a newspaper.
  • Lamyanba is a Manipuri word that means “beautiful”. It is not the name of a newspaper.
  • Manipur Times is an English-language newspaper that is published from Imphal, Manipur, India. It is not the first Manipuri language newspaper.
