Bijoy Koijam is a politician from Manipur, India. In 2002, he was elected to the Legislative Assembly of Manipur, as the Manipur State Congress Party candidate in the constituency Thongju.[1][2] In 2003, he was appointed Minister of Family Welfare in the state government.[3] He was removed from his ministerial post in 2004.[4] In 2007, he retained his Assembly seat, contesting on behalf of the Indian National Congress.[5]
Koijam is the chairman of the Manipur Electronic Development Corporation.[6]
In August 2007, a suspected People's Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak militant was arrested in Koijam's residence. Koijam claimed that the man had worked as his driver.[7] Koijam alleged that the arrest had been politically motivated.[8]
In March 2008, PREPAK militants attacked Koijam's residence, hurling bombs at it.[9]
