Agartala, Sep 16 (UNI) CPI-M State Secretary Jitendra Chowdhury on Friday wrote to Tripura Chief Secretary J K Sinha and the Election Commission of India demanding an "impartial inquiry" to ascertain the ownership of a large number of motorcycles registered in Uttar Pradesh which are plying in Agartala.
Chowdhury sought to know who procured hundreds of motorbikes bearing registration numbers of Uttar Pradesh in Tripura and parked them within the premises of the government-run Bhagat Singh Youth Hostel, close to the civil secretariat, for the past one week.
“The government has not yet divulged in whose name the bikes are registered in UP, snf why the owners allowed those to be transported to Tripura, by whom those bikes were transported here and by what kind of agreement those were procured and shifted here i.e. by sale deed, donation or on rental basis,” the letter read.
