Abstract: This paper attempted to understand social changes in the Thangal Naga tribes and its influencing factors. The Thangal Society also undergoes change. Changes amongst the Thangals became louder when Manipur was brought within the pale of British administration. In others words, modernization of the Manipur society in general and Thangal society in particular was first started with the occupation of Manipur by the British after the Anglo-Manipur War of 1891. Now, the Thangal are at the cross road of identity crisis. Many factors are contributing to this. The most important factor is demographic. Although the census date show the increasing rate of population of the Thangals, yet the total population of this tribe is still less in number.
