PublisherKing Loiyumba (Ancient Meitei: Loiyumpa)
It is an 11th-12th century written constitution of the Manipur kingdom.

The Loiyumpa Silyel (Modern Meitei: "Loiyumba Sinyen"), also termed as the Loyumpa Silyel (Modern Meitei: "Loyumba Sinyen") or the Loiyumpa Shilyel (Modern Meitei: "Loiyumba Shinyen") or the Loyumpa Shilyel (Modern Meitei: "Loyumba Shinyen") or the Loyamba Sinyen (Old Manipuri: Loyampa Sinyen), is an 11th-12th century written constitution, regulated in the Manipur kingdom during the regime of King Loiyumba (1074-1122 CE).[1] A promulgation of the proto-constitution in 429 CE by King Naophangba was reduced to a final format in 1110 CE.[2][3][4] Historically, it is the first written constitution,[5] and one of the well recorded antique manuscripts of the kingdom.[6][7] Its Constitutionalism was replaced by the Manipur State Constitution Act, 1947, that was functional until Manipur was merged into India on October 15, 1949.[8]

It includes the accounts of the distribution of the duties to the subjects of the king.[9][10] Its rules and regulations remains to be an authoritative work in the Meitei social system till the present day Manipur.[11]
