In a significant anti-smuggling #operation, the Border Security Force (BSF) seized a heroin packet worth approximately ₹5 crore near the India-Pakistan border in Rajasthan's Sri Ganganagar district. The operation commenced late Wednesday (March 12) night after local villagers reported spotting a #drone entering from Pakistan, prompting immediate action from security agencies. A joint team, including BSF G Branch Officer Devi Lal and CID Officer Hanuman Singh, conducted a thorough search approximately 2.5 kilometers inside Indian territory. By Thursday morning, the Gajsinghpur police had retrieved the packet, confirming it contained 1.116 kg of heroin. Preliminary investigations suggest the #contraband was delivered via a drone from Pakistan. This incident underscores a troubling trend of increased drone-assisted #smuggling across the India-Pakistan border. The #BSF has intensified search operations in the area, with additional blockades and patrols implemented to prevent further illicit activities. Authorities remain vigilant against such cross-border smuggling attempts, reflecting the BSF's commitment to national security.
