check your currebt page with loop variable then add class according to it.

$pagLink = "<ul class='pagination'>";  
$current_page = isset($_GET['page'])?$_GET['page'] : 1; //retrive your current page value here
for ($i=1; $i<=$total_pages; $i++) {
    $active_class = "";
    if($i==$current_page)
    {
      $active_class = "active";
    }
    $pagLink .= "<li class='$active_class'><a href='manage_claims.php?page=".$i."'>".$i."</a><li>";  
}
echo $pagLink . "</ul>";
