In a recent anti-drug drive, Sepahijala district police in Tripura dismantled fourteen cannabis nurseries that were being used to grow marijuana. The operation involved teams from the district police and narcotics control units, who identified the sites, seized the plants and destroyed the cultivation material on the spot.

The police did not report any arrests or injuries during the operation, focusing instead on eliminating the drug-producing infrastructure. The department reiterated its commitment to continue such raids to prevent the spread of narcotics and protect community health.
State officials have urged residents to cooperate with law‑enforcement agencies and report any suspicious activity related to drug cultivation or trafficking.
