Dear Readers,
At the outset, may I have the privilege to apologise for the inability to bring out the magazine in time. Due to the current crisis in the state which started from May 03 last year which is still continuing dividing two communities apart, the focus of all the people of Manipur was in providing succour of the thousands of internally displaced persons living in relief camps, temporary shelters and elsewhere and in defending the vulnerable villages. This issue need not have been brought out in the editorial but it was done as it is the best policy to lay the ground reality. The COVID-19 and this present crisis have impacted every activities and had put the Manipuri society in a state of confusion but we will strive to bring out the magazine in time in the future with the support of all concerned.
For the first time we are using AI generated visuals one of which is on the cover. as we felt the need to keep abreast with technology, along with an article on AI. We as usual incorporates an article on Know your Universe and this time it is on the warming of the Artic, Medicinal Plants, Quiz, etc. An article of Meitei Sagol (Manipuri pony) which was associated with the culture and tradition of the Meitei and another on Yubi Lakpi a traditional game of the Meitei are included.
The lead article is on Poppy, the beautiful flower which is a part of the crisis in Manipur presently. The menace of this beautiful flower is brought out for the readers to know the ground reality and the need to check its plantation to negate the belief that the Golden Triangle is moving westward into India.
I wish the readers though belatedly, a Happy Sajibu Nongma Panba, the New Year of the Meitei.

neScholar Magazine Description:

“neScholar Magazine” published by North East Brothers Entertainments Pvt Ltd is a Quarterly Multi-Colour magazine, registered under “RNI-MANENG/2014/00112” and “ISSN” No.2350-0336.

The modest intention behind “neScholar Magazine” is to impart knowledge on North East India beyond school and college textbooks and also to inculcate a new form of reading habit among students.

“neScholar” Magazine is an effort for providing information to our students, which are felt relevant and good to know. We try to bring in a mix of articles covering various subjects and topics. 21st Century is an age of information and information is regarded as power. The School curricula just could not provide all the information required to make our students a knowledgeable person. And ours is a small endeavour to bridge a little of the gap in knowledge.

The world is becoming a global village and in the process many things which our ancestors have empirically learnt through experience and handed over from generations to generations is being substituted by newer things without understanding the implications. Values have changed but the traditional knowledge needs to be recorded and reassessed to understand the importance of such knowledge. Many of our cultural heritage are slowly being eroded aping other’s culture without realising the implications. The beauty of the world is its varied nuances and differences. If we have a single culture in our society, will the earth be as beautiful as it is now?

It features valuable information and articles in the field of Science & Technology, History & Archaeology, Heritage, Nature, Sports& Adventures and Career - for the curious mind. Our endeavor is to make reading an easy and joyful experience.

Board Of Editors / Expert Panel are a group of Experienced professors from reputed Universities of North East India namely Manipur University, North East Hill University (NEHU) Meghalaya, Gauhati University (Assam), Tripura University and Mizoram University.
