Lalduhoma shared his views on the ongoing conflict in Manipur and Biren Singh in an interview published in a national daily on Friday.

On Singh, Lalduhoma said: “I am sorry to say that he is a liability to the state of Manipur. He has been a liability to his own people and his party...If his service is still needed, in my opinion, it is a necessary evil. More evil and less necessary.”
