On the night of 7th June, 2024, vigilant BSF troops on duty intercepted the movement of a drone near the border in Amritsar district. Following established procedures, BSF personnel immediately took action and tracked the drone’s movements.
The likely drop zone was cordoned off, and an extensive search was conducted. At approximately 11:46 pm, BSF troops successfully recovered a packet (gross weight – 540 grams) of suspected heroin on the outskirts of Kalsian village in Amritsar district. The narcotics were wrapped in yellow adhesive tape, with a small torch and a metal wire loop also attached to the packet.
The keen observation, timely reaction, and diligent efforts of the BSF troops on duty once again demonstrated their commitment to preventing the entry of narcotics by drone from across the border.
