Assam Police seized a massive quantity of codeine-based cough syrup worth Rs 2 crore from Cachar district. The operation was part of a crackdown on illegal narcotics trade in the region. The syrup was found hidden in a large consignment intended for distribution. Police suspect that it was meant to be sold in both Assam and neighboring states, fueling the illegal drug market.
The seizure is seen as a major blow to the narcotics trade and is expected to reduce the availability of illegal substances in the region. Assam Police have intensified their efforts to tackle drug smuggling, focusing on intercepting such consignments to maintain public safety and reduce drug-related crimes.
