@dsourceindia The Zeme and Liangmai tribes are known for their rich culture. They are like other Naga tribes that practice the youth dormitory system. Meleingi and Chega-N-Khia are two of the biggest festivals of Zeme and Liangmal. This folk dance festival is about purification and certification of the males of the community, also a ritual for grooming young men to become strong warriors and to evoke the spirits of good fortune, courage, and ability.
