Manipur Says Over 10,000 Displaced Residents Resettled Under Phased Plan
Officials cite reduced violence plus expanded security as enabling cautious returns.
Overview
- Authorities report resettlement of more than 10,000 internally displaced people from over 2,200 households across the state.
- Assistance for camp residents shifted to Direct Benefit Transfer on November 1, 2025 to give beneficiaries greater flexibility.
- The rehabilitation package from the 2025–26 Budget underwrites housing support, with Rs 35.46 crore released for new builds and Rs 9.26 crore for repairs, and around 4,000 homes underway.
- The programme runs in three phases covering partially damaged houses, PMAY-G special allocations within districts, and inter-district relocation between valley and hill areas where required.
- Security posts are being established with state police, CAPF, Assam Rifles and the Army, as a State-Level Committee and district bodies monitor implementation and pace returns.
