Seat change

Against Manipur's previous Vidhan Sabha election (1974), matched constituency-for-constituency

60SEATS
  • Retained4 (7%)
  • Changed hands49 (82%)
  • New seat7 (12%)

4 constituencies were won by the same party as last time; 49 changed hands. 7 did not exist at the previous election.

India’s constituencies have not been redrawn since the 2008 delimitation, so this compares the same seat boundary both times.
