The plantation was discovered in a remote area during routine surveillance, with authorities estimating it to span several acres. Marijuana cultivation remains a significant issue in Mizoram, with the state being a major hotspot for drug trafficking due to its proximity to international borders.

Police are now investigating the individuals responsible for the cultivation and distribution of the narcotics, focusing on identifying any larger networks involved in the trade. Authorities have vowed to continue their strict stance on narcotics and drug-related activities to protect public health and safety.
