Imphal : The Seventh Session of the Twelfth Manipur Legislative Assembly will resume on March 9, 2026, with the state government expected to present the annual budget during the proceedings.

According to an official notification issued on Friday, the House will reconvene at 11:00 am in the Assembly Hall in Imphal. Officials indicated that the presentation of the state budget is likely to be one of the key agenda items of the session.

The seventh session had initially opened on February 5, 2026, with the address by the Governor of Manipur. The House was adjourned on the same day by Speaker Thokchom Satyabrata Singh after completing the scheduled proceedings.

That brief sitting came a day after Yumnam Khemchand Singh took oath as the 13th Chief Minister of the state on February 4, 2026. His swearing-in marked the restoration of an elected government in Manipur following the end of President’s Rule in Manipur (2025-2026), which had been imposed since February 13, 2025.

President’s Rule had been enforced amid prolonged instability in the state, which has been grappling with ethnic violence since 2023. The formation of the new government paved the way for the Assembly to reconvene.

During the February 5 sitting, the House conducted several key procedural and political activities. Govindas Konthoujam, the state’s Home Minister, moved the motion of thanks to the Governor’s address, which was seconded by Deputy Chief Minister Losii Dikho.

The Report of the Business Advisory Committee for 2026 was also tabled in the Assembly. Following this, Chief Minister and Leader of the House Yumnam Khemchand Singh introduced a motion of confidence in the government.

The confidence motion triggered participation from several legislators, including Leader of the Opposition Okram Ibobi Singh, along with MLAs K Ranjit Singh, Khumukcham Meghachandra Singh, Thokchom Lokeshwar Singh and Surjakumar Okram.

The motion of confidence was eventually passed, reaffirming the majority support for the newly formed government.

After completing the scheduled business for the day, Speaker Thokchom Satyabrata Singh adjourned the sitting of the Assembly sine die.

With the session set to resume on March 9, attention is expected to focus on the presentation of the state budget and discussions related to governance and development priorities. The upcoming sitting will be closely watched as the government outlines its fiscal plans and policy direction amid the continuing social and security challenges facing the state.
