Punjab Police Seize 20kg of Pakistani Heroin in Amritsar

Punjab police announced the seizure of a 20‑kilogram consignment of heroin during a raid in Amritsar. The narcotics, identified as originating from Pakistan, were intercepted by law‑enforcement officials as part of an ongoing anti‑drug operation in the state.
The Times of India reported that the haul underscores a rising trend of heroin smuggling into Punjab, a region that has witnessed a surge in drug‑related incidents over recent years.
Authorities have launched a detailed investigation to trace the supply chain and apprehend any individuals involved in the trafficking network. The seizure is expected to bolster ongoing efforts to curb the flow of illicit substances across the India‑Pakistan border.
