Open questions the AI reported
- The event date is given only as Saturday; 7 November 2026, the publication date and a Saturday, is used.
- The opened page cuts off during the sentence about the two accused being produced in court, so no remand order or later court outcome is known.
- No second outlet or police statement for this seizure could be opened.
- The value of about 60,000 rupees for the ganja is a police estimate and is not itemised.
- The page's only picture carries no caption or credit and could not be confirmed to show this seizure.
- The report does not state the section of the NDPS Act in the readable text, so no charges are recorded.
