The Border Security Force (BSF) in Punjab has accomplished significant success. They retrieved a drone, 112.15 grams of suspected heroin, and a pistol near the Punjab border.
Acting on information from the BSF Intelligence Wing, a joint operation with Punjab Police led to the recovery of one DJI Mavic 3 Classic Drone and a packet of suspected heroin weighing 112.15 grams in a charred state from a field near Mehdipur village in the district.
