A major drug bust occurred in Dibrugarh when Assam Police intercepted a smuggling operation attempting to transport large quantities of narcotics through the region. The authorities seized a significant amount of illegal substances, including heroin and methamphetamine, hidden in concealed compartments of vehicles. The arrested smugglers, who were part of an interstate drug trafficking syndicate, face charges related to drug trafficking and possession.
This seizure is seen as a major success in the fight against the drug trade in Assam, which has been a serious problem in recent years. The police have pledged to continue their efforts to dismantle drug trafficking networks in the state.
