Bare Act

The Manipur Legislature (Removal of Disqualification) Amendment Acts

This law amends the 1972 statute governing disqualifications for the Manipur Legislative Assembly by stating that holding certain government offices—including Deputy Minister, Speaker, and District Council Chairman—will not prevent a person from being elected to the legislature. Specifically, the amendment adds these roles to a list of positions where disqualification does not apply and overrides previous court judgments. It also includes a retrospective provision stating that these offices shall not disqualify holders from being candidates starting from February 1973, regardless of prior legal findings.
