Our Assessment

low

The Manipur Old Age Pension Scheme exists under the Department of Social Welfare, layered on the central NSAP. Evidence on the current state rate is conflicting across official district pages, and no clean approved-source confirmation of a state-wide increase to Rs 1,000 tied to this promise was found. Marked pending pending a verified state-wide rate. Context: Manipur saw ethnic conflict from 3 May 2023 and was under President's Rule from 13 Feb 2025 to 4 Feb 2026 (about 23% of the term with no elected government), which materially constrained delivery. Manipur state schemes are under-reported in national outlets, so confidence is low and absence of evidence is not treated as confirmed abandonment.
