The Mizo Students’ Organization also organized a warm reception program at the airport, extending support and solidarity to the veteran leader.
In a brief interaction with the press, Valte shared that he received very limited financial assistance from the state of Manipur during his prolonged treatment in Delhi, despite the severity of his condition.
He further condemned former Chief Minister N. Biren Singh, stating that “he has been against the Zo community right from the beginning.”
The assault left him with multiple injuries and partial paralysis, forcing his relocation to Delhi for months of intensive medical care.
