Iwang Puriklai Chingkhu Telheiba (ꯏꯋꯥꯡ ꯄꯨꯔꯤꯛꯂꯥꯏ ꯆꯤꯡꯈꯨ ꯇꯦꯜꯍꯩꯕꯥ), shortly known as Chingkhu Telheiba (ꯆꯤꯡꯈꯨ ꯇꯦꯜꯍꯩꯕ), was the king of the Moirang dynasty in the ancient Moirang kingdom. He ruled from 1083 CE to 1138 CE, during a time when his family and Moirang Kangla court were central to the stories of the classical epic Khamba Thoibi of the Moirang Kangleirol tradition of Meitei mythology and folklore. Having no sons, his younger brother Chingkhu Akhuba was made the crown prince (wangol ningthou, or wangon ningthou). Both brothers are sometimes called Chingkhuba, which can cause confusion.
