A narcotics-carrying Pakistani drone entering India from along the International Border in Punjab has been shot down by the Border Security Force (BSF) troops on Friday, a senior officer said.
The unmanned aerial vehicle was downed around 2:30 am near the border post-Rear Kakkar in the Amritsar sector of the state.
The drone has been recovered this morning between the border fence and zero line of the India-Pakistan International Border.
A three-kg weighing packet containing suspected heroin has been recovered along with the quadcopter, a BSF spokesperson said.
