The Manipur (Courts) Amendment Act, 1992 is a legislative modification that updates the financial jurisdiction of civil courts operating in the state of Manipur. Specifically, it amends section 32 of the original Manipur Courts Act of 1955 by increasing the pecuniary limit for certain legal claims from five thousand rupees to fifty thousand rupees. This law directly affects individuals, businesses, and legal practitioners involved in civil litigation within Manipur. By raising this threshold, the amendment allows lower civil courts to adjudicate higher-value monetary disputes, thereby modernizing judicial operations, easing the workload of higher courts, and streamlining dispute resolution for local citizens.
