322 Cartons of Illicit Liquor Seized in Rajasthan
The Rajasthan Police found a big secret.
They stopped a diesel tanker at the border between Punjab and Rajasthan.
Inside the tanker, they found 322 cartons of illegal liquor.
The liquor was being smuggled from Punjab to Gujarat.
The police arrested the driver, a 26-year-old man named Suresh.
This happened just one day after Punjab started a big campaign against drugs.
People are asking how the tanker got past all the checkpoints in Punjab without being caught.
The police are now trying to find out more about who was involved in this smuggling.
322 cartons of illicit liquor were seized from a diesel tanker at the Punjab–Rajasthan border.
The tanker, originating from Punjab, was intercepted at the Rajpura-Patli check post.
The seized consignment included 252 cartons of Indian-Made Foreign Liquor (IMFL) and 70 cartons of beer.
