The article gives no separate date for the raid; 26 October 2026, the publication date, is used as the incident date.
The captured page is cut off by an app membership prompt partway through; the sentences naming the arrested man, the DST head and the NDPS case appear on the page but could not be verified against the captured text, so the arrest and charge counts are left out of the figures.
The 35 kg is the weight police gave for the 45 green plants, not a weight of dried cannabis, and no laboratory confirmation was reported.
The reports do not say whether the plants were destroyed, kept as evidence or left standing.
The report does not specify the NDPS Act sections or say whether arrested people were produced in court; future court steps are not yet known.
Only one source for this event could be found; searches in Hindi and English returned no independent account.
The page photo carries only a caption saying the Tonk DST caught the cultivation, without identifying what the picture shows.
Dhunwakala is not mapped here, so the coordinates and the district-level precision mark Tonk district rather than the village.
