A recent piece by Shweta V on e-pao.net argues that Manipur must adopt a comprehensive livelihood policy rather than relying solely on emergency relief measures.
Shweta V’s article on e-pao.net highlights a growing concern in Manipur: the state’s current focus on relief measures is insufficient for long‑term development.
The author explains that a livelihood policy would provide structured, sustainable employment opportunities, unlike temporary relief which addresses immediate needs.
She urges policymakers to design programs that build skills, support local industries, and create job markets that can absorb the state’s growing workforce.
The piece concludes that without such a policy, Manipur risks continued dependence on aid and missed chances for economic resilience.
