Imphal, May 22 2009:
With a view to establish a common platform for the people of North Eastern States of India living in the United Kingdom, a get together was recently held on May 17 at Greenwich, London.
In a memorable and fun filled afternoon, many people including families from different communities of the North Eastern States came together and shared a multitude of experiences and information.

There were families and individuals from the Mizo, Naga, Kuki, Hmar, Meitei, Paite, Vaiphei etc communities at the get together giving it a pan North East look.
Many of them residing in the UK as artistes, professionals, businessmen, students etc were overwhelmed by the realisation of the closeness of all the communities and how much they could learn and understand from each other in just one evening.
All those present at the get together extended their gratitude to Lien Gangte and Miss Sanke Konyak for initiating and organising such a memorable and important event for the people of the North East of India residing in the United Kingdom.
Everybody acknowledged the importance of such a meeting and the need for such a gathering at least once every few months.
Plans are on to organise such get togethers where families and individuals from the region can come together and share their respective culinaries besides presenting cultural items.
A number of people from the North East region are presently residing in the UK.
