Abstract

The present article tries to map the development scenario of Manipur in terms of its performance in economic growth, unemployment and human development. The findings show the growth of Manipur’s economy is very erratic compared to the all-India scenario. Also, regarding unemployment, the picture is not very impressive, and life expectancy and a decent standard of living are low compared to all-India. The above specific development scenario is explained in terms of four challenges the state is facing today: Inability to generate its own resources, incomplete development projects due to corruption, prevalence of customary laws and widening of hill-valley divide. This study, based on secondary data sources, aims to contribute to the ongoing debates on development in the state of Manipur.
