Noney

Noney (Meitei pronunciation: /nō-né/), also known as Longmai, is a town located in the western part of Manipur, India. It is 63 kilometres (39 mi) west of Imphal, the capital of the state of Manipur. Its population is almost entirely made up of Rongmei Naga. Previously known as a village, recently has been declared as one of the new district headquarters of Manipur and is separated from the existing Tamenglong District and now comprises Haochong, Khoupum, Nungba and the Longmai subdivision. Though the area is often known by the name "Noney" leaders of the land preferred the name "Longmai". Which mean, Luang-range and mai-widow (the widow ranges) derive from its geographical features.
