Foundation day celebrations

The International Sanamahism Students' Association celebrate its annual foundation day events on:

Felicitation of the King

In response to their encouragement and recognition of his deeds, Sanajaoba said that the efforts to officially recognize Meitei language as an Indian classical language was "in the process of materialisation".[14]

Training camp

From 24 April 2019 to 28 April 2019, the International Sanamahism Students' Association organised a 5-day students' leadership training camp at the District Institute of Education and Training (DIET) in Keikol, with the aim "to cultivate the youths with the sense of belongingness and spirit of nationalism."[15] [16]

Quiz competition

On 22 September 2019, the International Sanamahism Students' Association organized a quiz competition titled "Know Your Kangleipak (Manipur)" at GP Women's College, Imphal. As said by Khaidem Kangleingakpa, the president of the ISSA, the event was organised with the objective to know the land of mni|[[Kangleipak]]|[[Manipur]].[17] [18]

Actions against "vulgar portrayal"

In October 2017, the International Sanamahism Students' Association demanded clarification from author Omor Singh Wangkhem and Kangla Printers regarding the book The Writers Mahabharatta & Rammayana as the Real Religious Scientists, while the Manipuri Students' Federation burned copies of the book,[19] which compared Meitei goddesses to prostitutes.[20]

Later, through the Meitei language newspaper daily Hueiyen Lanpao, the author apologized to the angered associations for his misdeeds.[21]
