Arunachal Pradesh Seizes 458 Acres of Illicit Cannabis in Massive Anti-Drug Drive

The state’s anti‑drug squad carried out a large‑scale operation that led to the eradication of 458 acres of illicit cannabis. The drive, conducted over several days, targeted cultivation sites in remote areas of Arunachal Pradesh. Law enforcement officials said the removal of the crop will disrupt the supply chain of narcotics in the region. The operation is part of a broader effort by the state government to curb drug production and trafficking. Authorities plan to continue monitoring the area to prevent re‑establishment of illegal cultivation.
