Help us verify“To boost entrepreneurship in Manipur, the BJP Manipur Govt will establish Rs.100 cr Start-up Manipur Fund to provide zero-interest loans of up to Rs.25 lakhs.”
A Startup Manipur ecosystem exists under the Planning Department, and the Government of Manipur, with NEDFi, created a Manipur Startup Venture Fund; CM N. Biren Singh launched a Venture Fund for Manipur Startup Scheme 2.0 during the term. So a startup fund exists and was enhanced. However, the documented support structure is grants and bank-loan-linked subsidies, not the specific Rs 100 crore corpus providing zero-interest loans up to Rs 25 lakh that was promised. Marked partial: a fund was established or enhanced, but not verified in the exact promised form, corpus size, and zero-interest terms. 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.
We will also provide interest-free loans to MSMEs for technology upgradation, capital requirements and to enable better market access.
'One Sub-Division, One Product' programme is also being started in the state.
