  1. This is totally fake.
    No bikes we stopped at sarchu. In facts all the bikes with hp registration are hostaged by leh people and keys were snatched from the clients. Those who didn’t hand over the keys , they were abused and we do have proof of that. My friend was punched and abused just coz he didnt stop .
    Right now there are about 87 bikes from Manali hostaged by these goons who believe that they are above law and order and can stop anyone riding into JK as if the own the road. What about our rights to freedom ?
