Police conducted coordinated raids across Adilabad district, resulting in the seizure of 122 cannabis plants being illegally cultivated. The operations were carried out as part of a sustained drive against drug trafficking and cultivation activities in the area.
The raids targeted locations where cannabis was being grown without authorization. Authorities have intensified patrols and intelligence-gathering operations to dismantle illicit cultivation networks operating within the district.
Adilabad has emerged as a focus area for anti-narcotics enforcement in recent months, with multiple operations targeting illegal drug production. The district's terrain and relative isolation have historically made it vulnerable to cannabis cultivation activities.
The seized plants have been documented and secured as evidence. Investigations are ongoing to identify individuals involved in the illegal cultivation, with authorities examining supply chains and potential distribution networks. Police have urged the public to report any suspicious agricultural activities or drug-related crimes in their areas.
