CM Himanta Biswa Sarma presses for transparent investigation into Assam girl’s death in road accident


Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has called upon Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad Sangma to ensure a transparent and high-level investigation into the tragic death of Namrata Bora, a 25-year-old woman from Golaghat, Assam, who died in a car accident in Meghalaya earlier this week.

Taking to social media platform X (formerly Twitter), CM Sarma urged his Meghalaya counterpart to ensure a “fair and impartial enquiry by a senior police officer” into the incident, citing concerns raised by Namrata’s grieving family.

“A vehicle with Assam registration AS 01 EV 9578 was involved in the accident that led to the unfortunate death of Namrata Bora. A case has already been registered at Nongpoh Police Station. However, in light of the family’s concerns, a thorough probe is essential,” Sarma posted.

Responding to Sarma’s request, Meghalaya CM Conrad Sangma confirmed that he has directed officials to conduct an impartial investigation. “@himantabiswa I have given instructions to ensure the same,” Sangma replied on X.
