Biren Singh’s leadership over the worsening violence and unrest in the state.

“We felt strongly that seeing the suffering of the people and overall situation not improving any further, we have lost confidence in the current leadership of Biren Singh there that we would not be able to move forward and it will be difficult for NPP to support the Biren Singh Govt,” Sangma said.

Sangma stated that the NPP was open to working with the Manipur government if there was a “change in leadership” and a clear plan to restore peace.

“If we see that there is a change in the leadership and we see that there is a positive step forward, and if we see that there is a plan to move forward to find resolution and we can constructively cooperate and contribute to ensuring that peace and normalcy would return, then we are happy to be working. But we will the situation,” he added.
