The accused, identified as Vishaldeep and Lovepreet, are scheduled to appear in court today.
According to sources, the NCB had received intelligence about heroin being sold to addicts in the Nurdi Adda locality.
'Based on the input, we kept the area under surveillance for several days. Once the information was confirmed, we conducted the raid and apprehended two smugglers,' said a source closely associated with the operation.

Peace is our nature, not violence
Today we are living in a world where violence has become our culture. It may be seen in the hundreds of wars going on in different parts of the world or it may be seen through innumerable violent incidents that occur every day in cities and homes across the universe. So, what exactly has led to the spread violence so much even though people strongly denounce it? One of the major reasons as to why violence has become so deeply embedded in the human psyche is that on one hand, we denounce it but on the other hand we condone or even justify it. In the 21st century, that we all boast of living in, violence has been glorified in ingenious ways by the media, especially television, internet & films. Today even toys, cartoons and comics spread the virus of violence in young minds. Hence, a world that has been fed so much on violence is no wonder becoming increasingly dangerous to live in for its occupants. We all must realize that good or evil are in fact the traits of the human soul and even after death these traits or sanskar are carried on to the next birth. These sanskar may change or become stronger as per the person's karma in the next life. Hence, it follows that one may kill an evil person but one cannot destroy the evil in that person. It would instead increase due to feelings of hatred and revenge. Remember!! An evil act is bound to be punished as per the Law of Karma in the present or the next birth, because there is a natural justice system that works infallibly and eternally. Hence, one must never think that if someone avenges a wrong by doing wrong in turn, he/she will not suffer. No!!the truth is that in this case, both the persons will have to pay for their respective wrong actions by undergoing some suffering, because any act done with ill will towards others is violence and it is bound to bring sorrow for the doer. Hence, a person may escape the laws of the land but his karma will catch up with him sooner or later for sure. The world that God created for us was a completely non-violent and harmonious world where no evil existed. Goodness exists eternally; it is when we begin to lose touch with our real values that we are enslaved by negative tendencies. We are all children of 'Almighty' who is the ocean of love, peace and joy, so his qualities are our qualities too eternally, aren't they? That is why all humans resist hatred. They never resist love or joy. HE never forsakes and forgets his values while we do so due to our own ignorance. HE is always merciful and benevolent towards all, so how can he justify violence? Hence one should be very clear on this issue that wars and calamities are not the curse of almighty, but the results of our own actions & wrong doings. And the only way to bring peace & harmony back on earth is to empower ourselves spiritually and rid our minds of all negativities. This will uproot violence completely out of the world and the world would become the one that it was, serene& peaceful.

CM Yogi Adityanath says religious conversions a deep conspiracy, won't be tolerated
LUCKNOW: CM Yogi Adityanath on Saturday termed illegal religious conversions a calculated conspiracy to undermine the nation's identity and destroy social fabric, asserting that Uttar Pradesh government was taking firm action to curb it. Yogi referred to the recent case of Balrampur where a large-scale illegal conversion racket backed by foreign funding was unearthed. The CM revealed that the suspicious transactions of over Rs 100 crore was found across 40 accounts with pre-determined 'rates' for conversion. He termed it a grave threat to economic and social security of the state and the nation. 'Some forces are deliberately trying to alter the fundamental character of the country through unlawful conversions. This is an attack on social cohesion and cannot be tolerated under any circumstances,' the CM said while addressing the flagging-off ceremony of Shri Tegh Bahadur Sandesh Yatra dedicated to 350th Shaheedi Varsh of the Sikh Guru. Yogi underlined that marginalised communities, particularly Scheduled Castes, were being lured and coerced into changing their religion. He emphasised that such acts were against the spirit of the Constitution and the principle of social equality. The Yatra, which commenced from Lucknow, will pass through Kanpur, Etawah, and Agra before culminating at Chandni Chowk and the historic Sheeshganj Gurudwara in Delhi—the site of Guru Tegh Bahadur's martyrdom. A commemorative memento was also presented to the CM to mark the occasion.

Air India Crash: How US Golden Chassis Helped Recover 49-Hour Flight Data, 2-Hour Audio
Last Updated: The Air India-171 crash report was released on Saturday, revealing the cause of the crash on June 12. A Golden Chassis from the United States played a key role in downloading 49 hours of flight data from one of the black boxes of the ill-fated Air India-171 plane, which crashed on June 12, killing all but one on board. After the crash in Ahmedabad, the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) retrieved two black boxes and brought them to New Delhi on June 24 for decoding purposes. Usually, to get data from damaged flight recorders, investigators borrow a 'Golden Chassis" and the needed download cables from other agencies that handle air crash investigations. In the ongoing investigation, AAIB said on Saturday that the Golden Chassis, or the identical EAFR unit, and download cables, which were needed to download data from Enhanced Airborne Flight Recorders (EAFRs) were sourced from the US National Transport Safety Board (NTSB). The data download from the front EAFR was tried at the AAIB Lab in the national capital on June 24. The Crash Protection Module (CPM) was taken out of the forward EAFR and was found to be in good condition. 'The CPM was mounted on the Golden Chassis, and the raw data was downloaded from the EAFR. The downloaded flight data contained approximately 49 hours of flight data and 6 flights, including the event flight. The recovered audio was two hours in length and captured the event. Initial Analysis of the recorded audio and flight data has been done," AAIB said in its preliminary probe report released yesterday. The report said that the aft EAFR was significantly damaged and could not be downloaded using conventional methods. The CPM was opened to check out the memory card, which suffered extensive damage. Meanwhile, Sanjay Kumar Singh has been named the Investigator-in-Charge, and Jasbir Singh Larhga is the Chief Investigator. Vipin Venu Varakoth, Veeraragavan K, and Vaishnav Vijayakumar are part of the investigation team. To support the investigation, experts in flying, aircraft engineering, aviation medicine, aviation psychology, and flight recorder analysis have also been brought in.
