BSF seize 22 kg of ganja at two border outposts in Nadia and North 24 Parganas

The Border Security Force said it stopped two cross-border smuggling attempts along the India and Bangladesh border on the same day. A spokesperson for the BSF South Bengal Frontier said troops at the Kaijuri border outpost near Kalyani and at the Horandipur border outpost seized 22 kg of ganja, and that those carrying it escaped in the dark. The force said the seized ganja was handed to the enforcement agency concerned. The report attaches North 24 Parganas to the Horandipur outpost while Kaijuri lies on the Nadia side, so the recorded district is the one the report names.
