Troops of the Border Security Force (BSF) achieved significant successes near the Indo-Pak border, seizing a drone, packets of heroin, and opium in two separate operations on Tuesday.

A midday search operation initiated by a local farmer's alert led to the discovery of a DJI Mavic 3 Classic drone, alongside 541 grams of heroin and 30 grams of opium, in a farming field adjacent to Roranwala Khurd village in Amritsar district, the BSF reported.

In a separate incident, informed by specific intelligence, BSF troops in partnership with the Punjab Police uncovered a packet containing 484.31 grams of heroin near Mehdipur village in Tarn Taran district. The narcotics were discreetly packaged in yellow polythene with an iron wire loop and an illuminating strip.
