Guwahati: Two people were arrested with drugs in Assam's Karbi Anglong district on Tuesday, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said.

The drugs were being brought from the neighboring state, he said.

He posted on Twitter, "In an anti-narcotics operation conducted by @karbianglongpol in the early hours, based on actionable intelligence a vehicle was stopped and upon thorough investigation 685.65 grams of heroin and 3.118 kg of YABA tablets (over 29,400 tabs ) were recovered." ,

YABA tablets are illegal in India because they contain methamphetamine, which is a Schedule II substance under the Controlled Substances Act.

The goods were being transported from a neighboring state and two people were caught, Sarma said.
