GUWAHATI, Nov 10: Drugs worth Rs 10 crore were seized by security forces in two separate operations in Assam, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Monday.

“Weekend plans cancelled. @GuwahatiPol crashed a Rs 4 crore ‘Heroin House Party’ in Beltola,” Sarma said in a post on X.

Cachar Police and Assam Rifles personnel “gatecrashed another bash at Changkuri with Rs 6 crore worth of Yaba tabs!”, he said.

Yaba tablets are illegal in India as they contain methamphetamine, a Schedule II substance under the Controlled Substances Act.

“Two raids, zero chill,” the chief minister added, without mentioning when the operations were done.
