Shantidas Gosai or Shantidas Mahanta, also known as Shantidas Adhikari, was a Hindu preacher from Sylhet, Bengal.
He composed the Vijay Panchali (also spelt Bijoy Panchali in Bengali), in which he projected the land of Manipur in northeast India as the Manipur of the Mahabharata and claimed Babruvahana (Arjuna's son) as the father of Meitei king Nongda Lairen Pakhangba. His work identified Nongda Lairen Pakhangba as "Yavistha".[1][2][clarification needed]
