I believe the answer is:

erin

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'poets' name for island' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'in munger india' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ERIN' is hidden in the letters of 'munger india'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for erin that I've seen before include "Poetically, Ireland" , "country" , "Ireland (poet.)" , "Literary term for Ireland" , "'Come back to ...' (emigrant song)" .)
