Though [[Meitei Language Day]] (officially called [[Manipuri Language Day]]) is annually observed even before the establishment of the Directorate of Language Planning & Implementation, the Directorate is serving as one of the key organisers of the very annual event after just its inception in 2013.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-08-20 |title=Manipur observes 31st Manipuri Language Day - Eastern Mirror |url=https://easternmirrornagaland.com/manipur-observes-31st-manipuri-language-day/ |access-date=2022-08-22 |website=easternmirrornagaland.com |language=en-GB}}</ref>

== Language planning and implementation works ==

During November 2013, in collaboration with the ''[[Central Institute of Indian Languages]] (CIIL), [[Ministry of Human Resource Development|MHRD]], [[Government of India]], [[Mysore]]'', the Department of Language Planning and Implementation organised a five-day training programme on [[Natural Language Processing]] (NLP) ''in relation to [[Meitei language]]'' in [[Lamphelpat]]. The event took up the initiatives for the provision of the very essential boost for [[Meitei language]] and for ''"building of co-opera"'' in the ''Linguistic Data Consortium of Indian Languages'' (LDCIL). Major significant tasks discussed and highlighted during the event were [[machine translation]] for [[Meitei language]] documents; [[Optical Character Recognition]] (OCR) for Meitei language [[spell checker]], [[transcription]] (and [[transliteration]]) of [[Bengali script]] into [[Meitei script]] ({{lang-mni|[[Meitei Mayek]]}}) and vice versa. The event's main objective was to set up “building of co-opera” containing millions of [[Meitei language]] words, phrases, word meanings, words' [[spelling checker]] in computers.
