ETV Bharat's article is stamped 28 October 2026, 8:33 pm, and gives no weekday. Urban Acres, an English outlet that rewrote it the same evening, says the drive took place "on Wednesday", which was 28 October.

Source discrepancies

Urban Acres writes "The consignment was allegedly being transported to Bihar", and "The report did not specify whether any arrests had been made". ETV Bharat calls the traffickers an inter-state gang ("अंतर्राज्यीय गिरोह") and does not name Bihar, and says raids were under way to arrest them. The item follows ETV Bharat and does not carry the Bihar destination.

Quantities

ETV Bharat gives "गांजा के कुल 82 पैकेट बरामद किए गए, जिसका कुल वजन 164 किलोग्राम है" (82 packets of ganja, 164 kilograms in all). It values the ganja at about one crore rupees "अंतरराष्ट्रीय बाजार में" (in the international market), which is a police estimate and is not stored.

Category

The ganja was found in a car that had been signalled to stop on a highway, so the item is recorded as Trafficking rather than Enforcement.

Map pin

Dadha More and Sikid village have no Wikidata entry. The pin is Wikidata's point for Chatra (Q5087769), the seat of Chatra district (Q1979499), as an administrative seat. Wikidata gives the district a parent division and no direct link to Jharkhand; the state is taken from the article, which names Jharkhand in its section heading.
