"The Government of Tripura has constituted a high-level Enquiry Committee to enquire into incidents which happened on the night of 26th April 2021 during marriage ceremonies being held in violation of Corona Night Curfew at Manikya Court & Golap Bagan, Agartala. In the interest of an impartial enquiry, I request for relinquishment of my charge as DM & Collector West Tripura District", Yadav's letter accessed by a news source.
The State Law minister Ratan Lal Nath told the media that Yadav has been released from his position and his letter has been accepted by the Chief Secretary.

It will submit a report to the Chief Secretary soon.
