From the dazzling array of fresh fruit, spices and textiles, the sprawling Imphal market in Manipur could be mistaken for any other bazaar in India but it has one distinct difference - all 4000 traders manning its stalls are female. Ima Keithel which translates as 'mother's market' is a meeting ground and trading hub, run exclusively by women and is reportedly the largest all-women market in Asia and possibly the world.
