This year, the BSF has intercepted and seized 270 drones along the Punjab border, a significant increase from 107 last year and just 21 in 2022. These seizures led to the confiscation of 254 kg of heroin in 2023, compared to 440 kg in 2022 and 317 kg in 2021.Additionally, 37 arms and 409 rounds of ammunition have been seized, while three intruders from Pakistan and other countries were shot down.Sources revealed that smugglers are increasingly using smaller drones with a payload capacity of up to 500 grams, replacing the larger hexacopters previously used, which could carry 4 to 5 kilograms of contraband. To compensate for the reduced payload, the frequency of drone sorties has significantly increased.As part of their ongoing efforts, the BSF continues to enhance surveillance and interception capabilities to thwart such activities.
