Manipur High Court Suspends Census 2027 Until April 30, 2027 Over Displacement Concerns
The Manipur High Court has ordered the Census 2027 exercise in the state to remain suspended until April 30, 2027, amid concerns over displaced residents following ethnic violence. The court directed the Registrar General and Census Commissioner of India to examine seven representations raising issues about population accuracy, internally displaced persons, and demographic changes. The suspension allows time for the Centre to review these concerns and for potential legal challenges after a reasoned order is issued by the deadline.
