Spiritualist, academician, philosopher Pt CK Sinha, mesmerized the gathering organized by a few enterprising Bishnupriya Manipuri youngsters on the 8th March 2009, New Delhi.
 Accompanied by Girok Swapan Sinha & Girok Madhav Sinha, the team led us back to our roots, identity, future.  Pt CK Sinha laid special emphasis on making the Namsha, the Nukun and the Kathisuri as integral parts of a Bishnupriya Manipuri's life. They are not merely visual symbols or mute accessories. They reflect our philosophy as a community. They define the collective personality of the Bishnupriya Manipuris. The Geeta, he says is drawn in the mental map of each and every Bishnupriya Manipuri. However he feels, the importance level of the Geeta needs to be upped by thousand notches, to bring stability in all our lives. His observation is immensely factual when he claims, the Bishnupriya Manipuris over the centuries have been able to retain their culture, religion and values with a population which is not only scattered but is also a miniscule with literally no infrastructure to retain its language, culture, tradition, art. This is no mean achievement.  
 Pt. CK Sinha has done his Bachelor's Degree and Masters in English, from the prestigious Banares Hindu University. Some of his highlights are:

• Founder of Unakoti Academy- NGO. It promotes awareness on biodiversity & involves actively on the research work on Unakoti & Hastinapur.
• Life Member of ‘Indian History & Culture Society, New Delhi ‘.
• Life Member of ‘Brahmaputra Civilization & Research Society , Guwahati’.
• Founder of ‘Gayatri Kunj’ – a branch of Shantikunj, Haridwar.
