Loi

Loi is the word in the Meitei language (Meiteilon) for the term "scheduled caste". The term "Loi" is given to the indigenous and aboriginal people of Manipur in northeast India who refused to adopt Hinduism or where semi-Hinduised when the newly converted Manipuri king ordered all his subjects to adopt the religion.
