The Meitei calendar (Manipuri calendar, Kangleipak calendar or Maliyapham Palcha Kumshing) is a Solar and sidereal calendar used by the Meitei people of Manipur for their religious as well as agricultural activities. The concept of era in Meitei was first developed by Emperor Maliyafam Palcha, in the year 1397 BC (Palcha Era)^[1] in the kingdom of Kangleipak in present-day Manipur. It is believed that the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th and 7th months of the Meitei calendar were named after Poireiten's agricultural activities. Similar to Georgian calendar, the Meitei calendar also consists of twelve months and seven days but the starting date with the English calendar is different.^[2][3] The new year day known as, Sajibu Cheiraoba is celebrated on the 1st day of the month Sajibu.
