Indian states officially do not have flags of their own, except for Jammu and Kashmir. However, some unofficial flags have been reported:

• Manipur: four horizontal bands of yellow, dark blue, red and green

The Manipur flag posted is as reported from TV images and is not the princley state flag, but supposedly and independentist flag. But according to several sources this flag is (also?) used by Telegu Desam party that claim seperation from Telingana from Andhra Pradesh and can only be a mistake of attribution

In Flags of Aspirant Peoples this flag is labelled as "Manipur (Meithei and hill tribes)". It is more likely a revendicative or seperatist flag than an 'unofficial state flag'.
