New Delhi, Feb 3 (IANS) Three persons, including two teenage girls and a 27-year-old woman were arrested by the Delhi Police for allegedly smuggling heroin worth Rs 12 crore, an official said on Thursday.
According to the information, an FIR was registered against them at the Mohan Nagar Police Station of Dwarka District.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Shankar Chaudhary said that the police have recently launched an operation 'Varchasv' under which the girls were held. He said that it was a joint operation between Delhi and Haryana Police.
A case was recently lodged with the Sonipat Police and a team of Haryana Police came to Dwarka in the national capital. After developing the information, a joint raiding team of Dwarka District and Haryana Police was formed.
The team raided a house in the Bhagwati Garden extension area in Dwarka.
"We detained three from the spot. They tried to run away, but were chased and caught by our staff. Heroin was recovered from them," said Mr Chaudhary.
The girls were identified as Shivani (18), Preeti (18), and Kiran (27).
On checking their purses, polythenes containing off-white substance weighing 400 gms was recovered from the possession of Shivani, 424 gms was recovered from Kiran and polythene containing white substance weighing 439 gms was found with Preeti, said the police.
The total weight of the recovered substance came out to be 1,263 gms, which was later found to be heroin.
After following due process of law, all three were booked under the 21 NDPS Act.
Kejriwal gave eight guarantees to teachers for comprehensive education reforms in Punjab and promised that these guarantees would be implemented on priority if the AAP government is formed in 2022.
Former Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Tuesday ridiculed present Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi for his frequent accusations that he had "connived with the Badals" and harmed Punjab's interests.
The Bill has been listed for introduction, consideration and passing in the Lok Sabha. It is among 26 new Bills, which are to be introduced in the Parliament session beginning November 29.
MSP is the price that the government declares in advance and pays at the time of procurement of crops from the farmers at the Agricultural Produce Market Committees (APMCs), popular as Mandis. The concept is derived from the fact that the farmers should not suffer losses owing to lesser rates in the open market.
The Sanyukta Kisan Morcha, an umbrella organisation of the farmers' unions, said that their protests would continue till their demands, including guarantee for minimum support price and dismissal of Union Minister Ajay Misra Teni, were met.
Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Monday said the farmers' agitation against three farm laws will be always remembered as a 'watershed movement' to protect the democratic and human rights in the country.
