Bare Act

The Manipur Public Premises (Eviction of Unauthorised Occupants) Act, 1978

This Act governs the eviction of people who occupy government or local authority property in Manipur without permission. It applies to buildings, land, and other premises owned by the State Government or local bodies like municipal boards. The law empowers a designated authority to issue a proclamation and notice to unauthorized occupants, allowing them to use force if necessary to take back possession. If occupants leave property behind, the authority can sell it and distribute the proceeds after deducting costs. The Act also provides a mechanism for appeals to the Revenue Commissioner to ensure fair resolution of disputes regarding public property rights.
