Mangaluru: Lokayukta police officials carried out a file inspection at the Regional Transport Offices in Mangaluru and Udupi on Tuesday in connection with a case involving tax evasion during the registration of a luxury car.
According to officials, a BMW was registered at the Udupi RTO after its tax amount was allegedly reduced, resulting in an estimated loss of around 85 lakh rupees to the government. Certain procedures linked to the same registration were reportedly handled at the Mangaluru RTO as well, which led officers to inspect records at both locations.
During the verification, officials found some preliminary information. The Lokayukta SP said a detailed report will be submitted to the central office, and further action will be taken based on its directions.

Had a very good conversation with friend Modi: Trump
Washington (PTI): US President Donald Trump on Friday said he had a "very good conversation" with his "friend" Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
He was referring to the talks the two leaders had on Tuesday.
"I had a very good talk with him, and he's a friend of mine from India, and he's doing great. We had a very good conversation," Trump told reporters here as he headed to Las Vegas to address a roundtable on tax cuts.
Trump had called Modi on Tuesday to discuss the bilateral relationship and share perspectives on the situation in West Asia, where the US and Israel have launched a war on Iran.
The US and Iran declared a two-week ceasefire on April 7. They engaged in peace talks with Washington, insisting that Tehran give up its pursuit of nuclear weapons and uranium enrichment.
The war with Iran has sent gas prices soaring as Tehran blocked the sea lanes in the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow gateway for a fifth of global oil supplies.
During the Trump-Modi phone call on Tuesday, the two leaders stressed the importance of keeping the Strait of Hormuz open and secure.
According to the US Ambassador to India Sergei Gor, the 40-minute conversation ended with Trump telling Modi, "we all love you".
Tuesday's phone call was the second between the two leaders since the US-Israel war with Iran began on February 28.
