Lorry owners from Andhra Pradesh are seeking the release of their trucks that have been detained in West Bengal, according to reports.
Andhra Pradesh lorry owners have approached authorities to secure the release of several trucks that are currently detained in West Bengal.

They have reportedly lodged formal requests with both state and central transport departments, seeking clarification on the reasons for the detention and a timeline for release.
