Politicians constitute a particular group of users whose information need and information
seeking behaviour is quite specific. In our paper an attempt is being made to ascertain the
information needs of politicians who belong to different parties in Manipur. The channels
and sources of information they use and their involvement in information activities are
some of the parameters on which emphasis has been given. The barriers encountered by
the politicians have also been chalked out to draw solutions.
