Ngari (fish)
Ngari is a fermented fish product indigenous to the people of Manipur. ''Nga'' means fish in Meitei language and ''ri'' (''riba/liba'') means the process of fermentation. It is used as a condiment in Manipuri dishes like eromba, singju, kangshoi, morok metpa, and others. Ngari is also consumed in other southwest States of India. Preparation and nutritional value Ngari is made from small sun-dried pool barbs (''Puntius sophore'') locally known as phouba nga, which are 5-10 cm long. Traditionally, the fish is packed tightly in an earthen pot called ''ngari chaphou'' or ''kharung'' with a small amount of vegetable oil. The pot is then sealed with a fish paste, leaves, and mud and kept for fermentation at room temperature for about six months. Each of these pots can hold up to 15-75 kg of fish. It has a high source of protein, vitamins, and essential amino acids and fatty acids. It also aids in digestion and has pharmacological benefits. Production There are families in Manip ...

Ngari Prefecture
Ngari Prefecture () or Ali Prefecture ( zh, s=阿里地区 , t=阿里地區 , p=Ālǐ Dìqū) is a prefecture of China's Tibet Autonomous Region covering Western Tibet, whose traditional name is Ngari Khorsum. Its administrative centre and largest settlement is the town of Shiquanhe. It is one of the least densely populated areas in the world, with 0.4 people per square kilometer (1.0 per square mile). History In ancient times, Ngari was known as Zhangzhung. The Zhangzhung kingdom extended over much of western Tibet, until its conquest by the Tibetan Empire under Songtsen Gampo. Zhangzhung sites, such as its capital Khyung-lung dngul-mkhar, are traditionally believed to be closely associated with the development of Bon, the indigenous Tibetan religion. According to Bon tradition, the religion first spread to Zhangzhung from the semi-mythical lands of Olmo Lungring and Tagzig. Thereafter, Bon doctrines were transmitted to central Tibet.

Ngari Virus
Ngari virus (NRIV) is a single-stranded, negative sense, tri-segmented RNA virus. It is a subtype of the Bunyamwera virus (BUNV) and closely related to the Batai virus (BATV). NRIV is the only reassortment virus of the subtypes. There is evidence suggesting that NRIV stems from a naturally occurring reassortment event in which a host was infected with both BUNV and BATV. It is commonly found in areas that experience an outbreak of Rift Valley fever virus In geology, a rift is a linear zone where the lithosphere is being pulled apart and is an example of extensional tectonics. Typical rift features are a central linear downfaulted depression, called a graben, or more commonly a half-graben w ...
