Even as Manipur government is yet to introduce any of its cultural heritage, the Assam Higher Secondary Education Council (AHSEC) is all set to introduce Bihu as an elective subject for the higher secondary curriculum from next year. Students choosing Bihu as their elective subject would have to appear for a 100-mark question paper, which would have both theory and practical segments.
AHSEC organised a workshop with a number of Bihu experts and academicians to chalk out a roadmap for the same as well as to deliberate on the contents of Bihu textbooks and decide on the curriculum and syllabus.
However, any recommendations of workshop to include Manipur rich culture is still a far away dream.
It may be noted that Sattriya dance is already an elective subject in the HS Arts Stream.
