Abstract: The present invention is related to a liquid crystal display in which the antistatic measures in the manufacturing process is taken, and a method for manufacturing the same, and intended for providing a liquid crystal display in which the occurrence of static failure before the formation of the short ring is prevented, and a method for manufacturing the same. On a glass substrate (2), gate lines (46) are formed. The gate lines (46) are disconnected, and in the disconnected portion, discharge projections (52) and (54) are formed on both sides of a discharge gap (50). The discharge projections (52) and (54) are positioned substantially at the centre of the edges of the disconnected portion of the gate lines (46). On the gate lines (46) and in the discharge gap 50, a gate insulation film 56 is formed. Two through holes 58 are made in the gate insulation film (56) in the vicinity of the discharge projections (52) and (54) of each gate line (46). A metal wiring layer (48) is formed on the gate insulation film (56) so as to fill in the through holes (58).
