The Manipur state administration has released a festive assistance package worth ₹5.88 crore for 58,863 displaced individuals, aiming to support them during the holiday season.
Manipur's chief minister's office announced the release of a festive assistance fund amounting to ₹5.88 crore. The aid is earmarked for 58,863 people who were displaced by recent communal unrest in the state.
The assistance, distributed through local welfare offices, is intended to help beneficiaries meet basic holiday expenses such as food, clothing and school supplies. Officials said the allocation follows a detailed verification process to ensure that only genuine displaced families receive the support.
State authorities have urged the recipients to use the funds responsibly and have pledged continued monitoring of the scheme's implementation. The move comes as part of broader relief efforts aimed at stabilising the affected communities ahead of the upcoming festive period.
The government has not disclosed the per‑person amount, but the total disbursement reflects a significant commitment to address the humanitarian impact of the displacement.
The initiative is expected to be completed within the next few weeks, with further updates to be provided by the Manipur disaster management cell.
