Anantnag Police (X)x.comContinuing crackdown on drug trafficking, Anantnag Police arrests 02 drug peddlers in Bijbehara & Dooru. Heroin & charas recovered.
The article gives no separate date for the two operations; 7 November 2026 is its publication date and is used as the incident date.
The charas weights are given as approximately 22.4 grams and three grams, so the total is approximate.
No case numbers, legal sections, court dates or custody outcomes were published.
The article does not say whether the charas was meant for sale or personal use; trafficking is inferred from the police framing of the cases as drug-smuggling operations.
Only one accessible account of this event was found; web searches returned no second report or police statement.
The page carries a Srinagar Nov 6 dateline but was published on 7 November 2026; the existing Anantnag report uses 7 November as a fallback while the Anantnag Police post cited there points to 6 November for the operations.
No weight is given for any Handwara seizure, so no cannabis quantity from Handwara is recorded; the 4 grams of heroin in the Dooru case is not cannabis and is excluded from cannabis totals.
