| Summary, etc | The unique practice of Jingrwai Iawbei in the village of Kongthong, located in the East Khasi Hills of Meghalaya, gives it the popular name of “Whistling Village.” In addition to their conventional names, each resident is assigned an individual whistling tune. This distinctive custom shapes the residents’ unique personal identities and fosters a shared sense of belonging and historical grounding. As an inclusive genre of folklore, it serves as a living link to the village’s history and collective memory. – Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2025/35/commentary/jingrwai-iawbei.html |
