CPI(M) Criticizes Manipur Budget, Calls It Insufficient for Relief and Reconstruction Needs; JD(U) frowns, too

The CPI(M) has criticized the Manipur budget for 2025-26, arguing that it lacks adequate provisions for relief and reconstruction efforts amid ongoing ethnic violence and displacement. JD(U) also expressed dissatisfaction, calling it “not fully satisfactory.”

As the Lok Sabha approves Manipur’s budget, CPI(M) claims it does not sufficiently address the needs of over 60,000 displaced citizens or fund critical reconstruction projects in affected regions like Churachandpur and Moreh.

BY PC Bureau

New Delhi, March 12:

The Communist Party of India (Marxist) has strongly criticized the Manipur budget for 2025-26, calling it “inadequate” in addressing the humanitarian and economic crises gripping the state. The Janata Dal (United) also expressed reservations, terming the financial statement “not fully satisfactory.”

The CPI(M) contended that the budget lacks concrete measures to aid over 60,000 displaced individuals affected by ethnic violence and fails to allocate sufficient funds for reconstruction efforts in Churachandpur, Moreh, and parts of Imphal. “Despite an increase in allocations compared to the previous year, this budget does not reflect the ground realities. It does little to support those who have lost their homes and livelihoods,” said CPI(M) state unit secretary Kshetrimayum Shanta. He also pointed out the absence of provisions for flood relief, despite Manipur experiencing one of its worst floods in decades.

Echoing similar concerns, JD(U) Manipur unit secretary Maisnam Dorendro stated, “While some argue that the budget does not sufficiently cover the needs of internally displaced people, it is worth noting that previous funds were allocated for their assistance. However, overall, the financial statement remains unsatisfactory.”

The Lok Sabha on Tuesday passed the Manipur budget for 2025-26, alongside supplementary demands for grants amounting to ₹51,463 crore in additional spending for the current financial year. It also approved ₹1,291 crore in excess grants for the fiscal year 2021-22 and ₹1,861 crore in supplementary demands for 2024-25.

Defending the budget, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman stated that total receipts for Manipur are estimated at ₹35,368 crore, with total expenditure projected at ₹35,104 crore. She highlighted that the state’s own tax revenue is expected to be ₹2,634 crore, with an additional ₹400 crore from non-tax revenue.

nded financial support to Jammu and Kashmir, we are providing all necessary assistance for Manipur’s economic recovery,” Sitharaman said. She announced a ₹500 crore contingency fund to aid rehabilitation efforts and assured that ₹400 crore has been allocated for relief camp operations. Additionally, under the Prime Minister’s Awas Yojana (PMAY), 7,000 houses have been approved to provide shelter for those displaced by the ongoing crisis.

Manipur remains under President’s Rule, with legislative powers currently exercised by Parliament following the imposition of Article 356 last month. While Sitharaman asserted that the state’s law and order situation has improved, opposition leaders continue to demand stronger measures to address the pressing needs of Manipur’s citizens.

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
