Manipur
A small north-eastern state with ecologically sensitive valley and hill ecosystems, Loktak Lake and shifting monsoon patterns, exposed to landslides, deforestation and biodiversity loss. The SAPCC v1.0 (2013) covers 8 State Missions including state-specific priorities like the Manipur-Nagaland Organic Belt (MNOB), Bamboo Development Agency (BDA), and ADC-administered districts under Forest & Environment leadership.

About Manipur SAPCC
SAPCC Overview
Manipur's SAPCC v1.0 (2013) was prepared by the Directorate of Environment (State Nodal Agency) under the Department of Forests & Environment, with the Sectoral Working Group Committee chaired by the Additional Chief Secretary (Forests & Environment). The plan covers 8 State Missions aligned with NAPCC, with implementation through line departments, MSDA/MANIREDA, Hill Councils, ULBs/PRIs and community institutions; key sector agencies include Bamboo Development Agency (BDA) and Manipur-Nagaland Organic Belt (MNOB).
Climate profile
- District-wise change in days when rainfall exceeds 100 mm/day captured in Table 3.1; mean max temperature trends analysed against historical records.
- Hill and valley ecosystems show distinct climate sensitivity; forest dieback risk in projected scenarios under shifting monsoon patterns.
- Northeast-Himalayan vulnerability with high biodiversity exposure to invasive species and altitudinal-zone shifts.
Climate stress at a glance
- Loktak Lake and freshwater ecosystems face climatic stress alongside anthropogenic pressures from population growth.
- Shifting jhum cultivation and rain-fed agriculture face acute climate stress; livestock and bamboo livelihoods threatened.
- Autonomous District Councils, traditional bodies and Hill Councils support community-level adaptation in hill areas — adaptation requires traditional-governance integration.
