Q. With reference to India’s culture and tradition, what is “Huyen Langlon”?
Answer: It is an Indian martial art from Manipur
Notes: Huyen Langlon is an Indian martial art that originated in Manipur. The name comes from the Meitei language, where "huyen" means "war" and "langlon" means "knowledge" or "art". There are two main components to the sport:

• Thang-ta: Armed combat
• Sarit sarak: Unarmed fighting

The primary weapons used in Huyen Langlon are the thang (sword) and ta (spear). Other weapons include the shield and the axe. According to local legends, the art form originated from Tin Sidaba, the creator of the Meitei people. The British banned the art during the Anglo-Manipur War in 1891, but it was reintroduced by Maharaja Churachand in 1934.
