The poem revolves around the political atmosphere that made Manipur declining. The people of Manipur believe that their beautiful past is now being spoiled by the cultural and political turbulence. As a result, people are dying of hunger and begging bowls in hand. On the view of its people, Ngangom starts to tear and burn the traces of present conditions.
