Guwahati, Jun 7: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has urged Meghalaya Chief Minister Conrad K Sangma to conduct a fair and impartial investigation into the death of Namrata Borah, who died in a road accident near Nongpoh Police Station in Meghalaya on June 4.

The vehicle involved, bearing Assam registration number AS 01 EV 9578, met with the accident in the early hours of the day. Namrata Borah died on the spot, while four other co-passengers sustained minor injuries.

In a post on social media platform X, Sarma said that although a case has been registered at Nongpoh Police Station, the concerns raised by the deceased’s family and well-wishers warrant a detailed inquiry by a senior police official.

He expressed confidence that justice would be ensured through a transparent and unbiased investigation.
