Meidingu Naophangba (Old Manipuri: Meitingu Naophangpa) was a Meetei ruler of Ningthouja dynasty of Ancient Manipur (Antique Kangleipak). He is the successor of Naokhamba and the predecessor of Sameiraang. He promulgated a proto-Constitution in 429 AD, which later grew into the Loyumba Shinyen, a written constitution in 1100 AD, during the reign of King Loyumba.[8] He is one of the most outstanding figures in the history of Meitei architecture of Ancient Manipur.[9] He laid the foundation stone of the Kangla, the "Namthak Sarongpung", which is the holiest place to the Manipuri ethnicity.[10] During his reign, the coronation hall in the Kangla was inaugurated and a hog was sacrificed.[11] According to the Loyumba Shinyen, he took command from Mangang Luwang Khuman for the administration of justice in the kingdom.[12] According to the Chakparol, the ten villages of the Chakpas separated during his reign.[13] It was right from his reign that the newcomers (immigrants) were assigned and admitted to the yek salai (clans) and the yumnaks (families) of the Meitei ethnicity.[14] According to the Thengkourol, copper and brass were imported from Burma (Old Manipuri: Awaa Leipak) and China (Old Manipuri: Khaaki Leipak) during his reign.[15]

The first seven kings preceding his reign were sometimes considered divine, but it was right from his era that the rulers were usually regarded as human beings.[16] He is remembered for his emphasis on ethics.[17] Though many Manipuri Muslims claim that their earliest ancestors settled in Manipur right from the reign of Naophangba (5th century AD),[18] the claim is clearly contradicted by the fact that Islam and Muslims first set feet in the Indian subcontinent in Gujarat, extreme Western India in 623 AD (7th century AD).[19]
