Drugs Worth Rs 10 Crore Seized As Cops Bust Network Linking Nepal, Lanka

The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) has made a significant breakthrough in combating drug trafficking by dismantling an international network linked to Nepal and Sri Lanka. The operation resulted in the seizure of narcotics valued at approximately Rs 10 crore and the arrest of five suspects. This coordinated effort highlights the ongoing challenges of drug smuggling in the region, as traffickers exploit geographical connections to facilitate their operations. The NCB has intensified its focus on cross-border drug trade, which poses serious threats to public health and safety. Authorities are committed to strengthening surveillance and collaboration with international agencies to address this escalating issue. The recent arrests mark a crucial step in disrupting the supply chain and reducing the influx of illegal substances into India.
