2022 Manipur Legislative Assembly election

Legislative Assembly elections were held in Manipur from 28 February to 5 March 2022 in two phases, to elect 60 members of the Manipur Legislative Assembly. The results declared on 10 March 2022. The newly constituted assembly was named 12th Manipur Legislative Assembly. The ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 32 out of 60 seats and secured a comfortable majority. N. Biren Singh was re-elected as the chief minister and continued in his office, forming a new ministry. In September 2022, 5 legislators of JD(U) "merged" with BJP taking its total strength to 37 in the Assembly.

After the eruption of the Kuki–Meitei ethnic conflict on 3 May 2023, causing the displacement of over 60,000 people, chief minister Biren Singh was unable to control the violence and resigned on 9 February 2025. President's rule was declared on 13 February, and the legislature was put in suspended animation. Later on 4 February 2026, BJP leader Yumnam Khemchand Singh was sworn in as the new chief minister.

Background

2022 Manipur Legislative Assembly election

In the 2017 assembly elections the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) won 21 seats in a house of 60, and formed a government in alliance with National People's Party (NPP), Naga People's Front (NPF) and Lok Janshakti Party (LJP). N. Biren Singh won the contest for the chief minister, outdoing his rival Thongam Biswajit Singh, the first BJP legislator in the Assembly.

The support of NPP, a partner in the National Democratic Alliance as well as North East Democratic Alliance, was considered key. Its four MLAs were given ministerial posts, with BJP limiting itself to two ministerial posts. By 2020, the relationship between BJP and NPP soured, and the NPP legislators withdrew support. Nevertheless, CM Biren Singh managed to weather the storm by acquiring a few Congress legislators and getting a few others disqualified. BJP's candidate for Rajya Sabha, titular king Leishemba Sanajaoba, won the election, beating his Congress rival T. Mangibabu. Subsequently, NPP returned to the fold of the ruling coalition with reduced influence.

CM Biren Singh also held his ground against his internal rival Biswajit Singh, and acquired three Congress legislators including Govindas Konthoujam, its state unit president. Biren Singh was in a strong position ahead of the polls. He was seen as being friendly towards the hill tribals, and also won the favour of the majority Meitei community by achieving the Inner Line Permit system for Manipur.

The tenure of Manipur Legislative Assembly was scheduled to end on 19 March 2022.
