SHILLONG, DEC 2: National People’s Party (NPP) Chief Conrad K Sangma has said that the party is ready to face challenges in Manipur, where the state is going through difficult times due to law and order issues and political instability.
“Challenges will always be there, and challenges mean opportunities also,” Sangma told reporters after felicitating newly appointed Manipur State President, Dr Lorho S Pfoze at the party office here on Tuesday.
Newly appointed leader of legislative party, Rameshwar M. Singh and Chief Whip, Loken Singh and two newly appointed working presidents – Janghemlung Panmei and Noorul Hasan – were also felicitated by the NPP chief.
Sangma added that the party under Dr Lorho S Pfoze’s leadership will work to convert these challenges into opportunities.
“We hope that we will be able to convert those challenges into opportunities and grow as a party,” he said adding “Manipur state is going through difficult and challenging times and because of the local situation and the situation especially in the last two and a half years, the overall law and order situation, there has been a lot of political instability and political turmoil also and hence we feel that under these challenging circumstances the party under the leadership of Lorho will be organized to take on those challenges and more importantly convert them as I said into opportunities for the party as a whole.”
Regarding comments made by senior party leaders, Sangma said, “We respect the comments by all our senior leaders. Our party is a democratic party. We believe in voice being given out or views being expressed as a positive thing.”
The NPP is focused on working for all communities in Manipur and the region, Sangma emphasized, saying, “We are a party that is very secular. We believe in working for all the communities in the state as well as in the region.”
The party’s goal is to serve the people of Manipur and the Northeast, with a commitment to unity and development. “We will engage with everybody and look at the larger interest of the state of Manipur and the North East region as a whole,” Sangma said.
Earlier while congratulating Dr Lorho S Pfoze on his appointment as the party’s Manipur state president, the NPP chief said it’s a crucial time for the state and the party.
“Dr Lorho’s experience as a parliamentarian and his dedication to the people and the region make him the ideal person to lead the party in Manipur,” Sangma said, highlighting Pfoze’s soft-spoken nature and commitment to principles.
Sangma emphasized the party’s focus on serving the people and the region, saying, “We are here to give a positive message, to unify and send the message of unity of the region as a whole.”
The NPP aims to strengthen its presence in Manipur and the Northeast, with Pfoze expected to play a key role in organizing the party and preparing for the 2027 elections.
Sangma assured Pfoze of the national committee’s support, saying, “We will work closely with you to ensure that we are able to organise a party in the right way forward.”
