Bare Act
The Manipur Reservation of Vacancies in Posts and Services (For Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes) Act, 1976
This legislation secures employment opportunities in public sector posts and services across the State of Manipur for members of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. It applies to government appointments, local authorities, autonomous district councils, and state-controlled corporations, while exempting certain specialized roles such as research, scientific, temporary, or contractual positions. The law establishes affirmative action quotas based on population percentages, mandates official recruitment rosters, and provides concessions like age relaxations, fee reductions, and travel allowances. By instituting structured reservation procedures, oversight mechanisms, and annual reporting to the state legislature, it promotes social equality and ensures equitable representation in public administration.
