<b>Description:</b>
 
The Bishnupriya or Bishnupriya Manipuri (BPM) (ইমার ঠার/বিষ্ণুপ্রিয়া মণিপুরী) is an Indo-Aryan language spoken in parts of the Indian states of Assam, Tripura, Manipur and others, as well as in Bangladesh, Burma, and other countries.
Bishnupriya is spoken in parts of Assam, Tripura and Manipur in India, as well as in Bangladesh, Myanmar, and several other countries. It is different from many Indo-Aryan languages like Bengali, Assamese, Oriya, etc. The language originated and developed in Manipur and was originally confined to the surroundings of the Loktak Lake. Other authorities such as An account of the valley of Manipore by Col. McCullock, Descriptive Ethnology of Bengal by E.T. Dalton and the Linguistic Survey of India by Dr. G.A. Grierson mention that the language was in existence in Manipur before the 19th century. Dr. Grierson calls the language as "Bishnupuriya Manipuri", while some other writers call it simply "Bishnupriya". The principal localities where this language was spoken are now known as Khangabok, Heirok, Mayang Yamphal, Bishnupur, Khunan, Ningthankhong, Ngaikhong, Thamnapoxpi.
A great majority of speakers of BPM fled from Manipur and took refuge in Assam,<i>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.html?curid=3034054 ..... full article at Wikipedia]</i></td></tr>
