'''Maneckji Limji Hataria''' (1813–1890) was an Indian scholar and civil rights activist of [[Parsi]] [[Zoroastrian]] descent, who took up the cause of the Zoroastrians of Iran.

==Early life==
Maneckji was born at the village of Mora Sumali near [[Surat]], in [[Gujarat]], India in 1813;<ref>K. E. Eduljee, [http://www.heritageinstitute.com/zoroastrianism/parsi/surat3.htm "Parsi Influence Surat"], Zoroastrian Heritage.</ref> and as he himself tells, earned his own bread from the age of fifteen, traveling widely as a commercial agent in India. By the time of his appointment, he was already experienced, self-reliant and resourceful, and his choice by the Society proved a wholly admirable one. He is remembered among the [[Zoroastrians]] of [[Iran]], for whom he was to labor, with only one brief intermission from then until his death in 1890.<ref>[http://www.zoroastrian.org.uk/vohuman/Library/Maneckji%20Limji%20Hatari%20in%20Iran.htm "Maneckji Limji Hataria in Iran"], English Zoroastrian Library, reprinted from K. R. Cama Oriental Institute Golden Jubilee Volume, Bombay, 1969.</ref>

==Activities in Iran==
In 1854 Hataria was appointed emissary by the "Persian Zoroastrian Amelioration Fund", an organization founded in [[Bombay]] by [[Dinshaw Maneckji Petit]] with the aim of improving the conditions for the less fortunate co-religionists in Iran, who were being persecuted by the [[Qajar dynasty|Qajar]] rulers.

In [[Yazd]], Hataria established a Council of Zoroastrians, which succeeded in convincing a number of Iranian Zoroastrians to emigrate to India (where they are today known as [[Parsis]]). Hataria may also have been instrumental in obtaining a remission of the ''[[jizya]]'' poll tax for his co-religionists in 1882.

Manekji preached the advantages of collective social work and communal unity. He urged the Zoroastrians of Yazd and [[Kerman]] to form ''anjuman'' societies, based somewhat on the pattern of the [[Bombay Parsi Panchayet]]. Reports of early activities, sent by Manekji to Bombay, show that amongst other matters, the Kerman society attended to the restoration of the [[fire temple]] there. Similarly, hearing of the efforts of Manekji, the Bombay Parsis (led by Baronet [[Dinshaw Maneckji Petit]], whose wife [[Sakarbai Petit]] (nee Pandey) was from her mother's side of Iranian ancestry) collected funds for the repair of the [[Yazd Atash Behram]]<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.zoroastrian.org.uk/vohuman/Article/Sir%20Dinshaw%20Manockjee%20Petit.htm} | title= Sir Dinshaw Maneckji Petit}}</ref> (not the same as the present one, which dates to 1932). A bust of Manekji stands in the entrance gallery of the present-day Atash Behram at Yazd.

==Association with thinkers and writers of Nasseri era==
Maneckji Limji Hataria was the first envoy of Indian Parsis with the history of being interested in Iran and ancient relics of Iran as well as being affected by Neo Zoroastrian or Dasatiri text entered Iran. Despite his first mission was ameliorating the situation of Zoroastrian lives in Iran, but because of the
reasons which were mentioned, a little later he was linked to the scholars and writers of Iran in [[Naser al-Din Shah Qajar|Nasseri era]].<ref>Hajianpour, H., & Aidi, A. (2017).
