Experts including professors of various departments of Botany, Chemistry, Economics, Geography, Physics, Zoology and Meitei language from different universities took part in the workshop. The purpose of the event was the imparting of education upto graduation level of the mentioned general subjects in Meitei language medium. It was in accordance to the provisions of the "Manipur Official Language Act, 1979".[9]
