In earlier times, no adverse result was there as because of resettlement of migrants but it has been changed and resource conflicts arose due to spatial pressures.

Several civil organization of Manipur is claiming to introduce a system to regulate the free influx of population in Manipur. This has made a conflict smacking condition between the migrant communities and the host society. Migrants who are also known as „Mayang’ behave in the tune of two meaning system, either in the tune of their origin culture or in the tune of the host culture. Both positive and negative attitudes towards the Mayang people existed in the state.
