Valte, a former minister in the previous government, was attacked in Imphal on May 3, 2023, and had been receiving treatment in the state. According to a statement from Manipur Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand Singh's office, Valte's health condition deteriorated, prompting an emergency airlift to Delhi's Medanta - The Medicity Hospital, Gurugram. The air ambulance carried a team of doctors and left Imphal Airport at 4:30 pm on Sunday. Valte was initially treated at the Churachandpur Medical College Hospital in the state, where he was being monitored by a team of doctors. The chief minister personally oversaw the situation and arranged for the air ambulance to evacuate the ailing MLA. Two other BJP legislators, Tongbram Robindro Singh and Sanasam Premchandra Singh, escorted Valte from Churachandpur to Phoujakhai village and then to Imphal Airport, where he was received by the chief minister. The chief minister wished Valte a speedy recovery, saying, 'Pu Valte, please come back after you have fully recovered. I will wait for your return.' Valte's family members were also present at the airport and thanked the chief minister for his support."
