Besides its circulation in India, it is also circulated in the Manipuri populated areas of Bangladesh and Myanmar. It uses the Bengali script for writing the Meitei language. However, it doesn't have any faculties for printing in Meitei script as of 2022. R.K. Kalyanjit (Meitei: ꯔꯥꯖꯀꯨꯃꯥꯔ ꯀꯜꯌꯥꯟꯖꯤꯠ), the editor of Marup, while giving an interview, told that the reason for not printing in Meitei script is because there is no scope for teaching the script to Meitei language speakers in Bangladesh and Myanmar.[23]
