In a major breakthrough against narcotics smuggling, Tripura Police has seized Yaba tablets valued at ₹10 crore in the 41 Miles area under Mungiakami Police Station. Two suspects have been arrested in connection with the case.
This operation reflects Tripura’s growing vigilance in curbing illegal drug trade, particularly across vulnerable transit routes in the state.
Acting on intelligence input, police intercepted a vehicle during a routine check and recovered a large cache of Yaba tablets, a powerful stimulant often trafficked across the Indo-Bangladesh border.
Two individuals were apprehended on the spot and are currently being interrogated to identify the larger supply chain.
A senior police official stated:
“This is a significant seizure. Our team remains committed to fighting the drug menace in Tripura. The arrested individuals will face strict legal action.”

The Tripura Police’s relentless drive against narcotics is part of the state-wide anti-drug campaign, which has led to several major seizures in recent months.
Background: Yaba & Northeast Drug Routes
- Yaba is a synthetic drug combining methamphetamine and caffeine.
- The Northeast region is often exploited by traffickers due to porous borders.
- Tripura shares an 856 km border with Bangladesh, making border vigilance crucial.
Citizens have lauded the police for their continued crackdown on drug trafficking. Civil society organizations have also called for greater awareness and rehabilitation efforts, especially for youth vulnerable to addiction.
