‘In our language, Kuki refers to the wind blowing from the north-west. Bidhai means ‘cuttlefish’. Kukiaw Bidhiyal therefore translates as ‘Cuttlefish from the north-west’. At this time of year, many Bidhiyal are seen in the sea. Little children from different villages compete to catch as many as possible. Alick TIPOTI
