Elections to the '''[[Manipur Legislative Assembly]]''' were held in February 1967 to elect members of the 30 constituencies in [[Manipur]], India. The [[Indian National Congress]] won the most seats and its leader, [[Mairembam Koireng Singh]] was appointed as the [[Chief Minister of Manipur]] for his second term.

== Background ==
After the passing of the [[States Reorganisation Act, 1956]] and the ''Constitution (Seventh Amendment) Act, 1956'', Manipur was converted from a Part-C state to a [[Union Territory]] but, it wasn't assigned a Legislative Assembly.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://indiacode.nic.in/coiweb/amend/amend7.htm |title=Seventh Amendment |publisher=Indiacode.nic.in |access-date=2011-11-19 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170501011646/http://indiacode.nic.in/coiweb/amend/amend7.htm |archive-date=1 May 2017 |df=dmy-all }}</ref> Later, after the passing of ''The Government of Union Territories Act, 1963'', Manipur was assigned a Legislative Assembly of 30 members.<ref name=mha>{{cite web |url=https://www.mha.gov.in/sites/default/files/GovernmentUnionterritoriesAct1963_2.pdf |title=The Government of Union Territories Act, 1963 |date=10 May 1963 |publisher=[[Ministry of Home Affairs (India)|Ministry of Home Affairs]] |access-date= 21 October 2021}}</ref> A delimitation commission was set up which included the members of the [[Lok Sabha]] who were representing Manipur at the time.<ref name=mha/>
