![tvsikkim's tweet photo. Major Drug Bust in Siliguri: Nearly 2 Kg of Brown Sugar Seized at PC Mittal Bus Terminus, Three Arrested
Siliguri, November 6 : In a major crackdown on drug trafficking, Siliguri Metropolitan Police has achieved another significant success. Acting on a specific intelligence input, a joint team of Bhaktinagar Police Station and the Special Operations Group (SOG) conducted a raid at PC Mittal Bus Terminus and seized nearly 2 kg of suspected brown sugar. Three persons have been arrested in connection with the incident.
According to police sources, the joint team launched the operation following information about a suspected drug trafficking activity in the area. During the search operation at PC Mittal Bus Terminus, the police recovered a substantial quantity of brown sugar, estimated to be around 2 kg.
The three arrested accused include two residents of Malda district and one from Uttar Dinajpur district. Preliminary estimates suggest that the seized narcotics could be worth several crores of rupees in the international drug market.
Police have initiated an investigation to determine the source of the consignment and its intended destination. Investigators are also examining whether Siliguri was being used as a transit corridor for transporting narcotics to different parts of North Bengal and other nearby states and neighbouring countries.
The arrested individuals are being interrogated to identify the alleged masterminds behind the trafficking network and establish whether more people are involved in the racket. Police are also investigating the possibility of a larger organised drug trafficking network operating in the region.
It may be mentioned that Siliguri Metropolitan Police has been conducting continuous operations against drug trafficking across the region. The latest joint operation by Bhaktinagar Police and SOG is being viewed as another significant step in the ongoing crackdown on narcotics. However, the investigation is underway to uncover the wider network and establish the full extent of the operation.

PFA Sikkim Files Police Complaint Against Illegal Firecracker Bursting, Seeks Strict Enforcement of Ban
Gangtok, November 10: PFA Sikkim (People for Animals) has lodged a formal complaint at Sadar Police Station in Gangtok, seeking immediate police intervention against the illegal bursting of firecrackers across the state despite an existing government prohibition. The animal welfare organisation has urged authorities to intensify surveillance, investigate reported fire incidents and take appropriate legal action against those violating the ban.
The four-page complaint, submitted on November 10, highlights continued violations of the Sikkim Government's Notification No. 187/FEWMD dated December 19, 2014, which prohibits the manufacture, sale, use and bursting of firecrackers throughout the state. The prohibition was subsequently reiterated through Chief Secretary's Office Order No. 38/Home/2020 dated November 4, 2020.
The organisation also referred to Circular No. 145/IGP/L&O/2026, issued by the Inspector General of Police (Law and Order) on November 3, 2026, directing Superintendents of Police, Sub-Divisional Police Officers and Station House Officers to strictly enforce the statewide prohibition, prevent the illegal sale and stocking of firecrackers, and strengthen surveillance and checking.
Expressing concern over the continued use of firecrackers despite these directives, PFA Sikkim cited a recent incident in which a tree caught fire at M.G. Marg in Gangtok, along with a reported fire incident at Namchi District Hospital. The organisation called for thorough investigations into these incidents and other reported fires allegedly associated with firecracker bursting to establish their actual causes and identify those responsible.
The complaint emphasised that indiscriminate firecracker bursting poses serious risks not only to public safety and property but also to animals, birds and vulnerable sections of society. According to the organisation, loud explosions cause extreme fear, panic and distress among dogs, cats and other animals, while sudden noise and smoke adversely affect birds. Excessive noise and air pollution also pose health concerns for infants, senior citizens, heart patients, people with asthma and other respiratory conditions, and hospitalised patients requiring a peaceful environment for recovery.
PFA Sikkim stated that it had already informed the concerned police authorities about the dangers of firecracker bursting at the beginning of the festive season and requested preventive measures. However, the organisation alleged that violations continued despite its earlier communication, raising concerns about further incidents during upcoming festivals and celebrations.
Through its complaint, the organisation sought the registration of a General Diary entry, appropriate legal action against violators, investigations into the reported fire incidents at M.G. Marg and Namchi District Hospital, increased police patrolling and surveillance, and strict action against the illegal sale, storage and use of prohibited firecrackers.
The complaint also cited provisions of the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, Section 11 of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, 1960, and Sections 223, 125, 287 and 326 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, requesting appropriate action wherever the statutory requirements of the respective provisions are established.
Significantly, PFA Sikkim warned that it may approach the Sikkim High Court through a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) if the government prohibition continues to be violated and effective enforcement measures are not undertaken. The organisation said such legal intervention would seek directions for strict implementation of the ban, protection of public safety, environmental preservation and prevention of cruelty to animals.
The organisation further stated that it possesses video recordings and photographs allegedly showing illegal firecracker bursting in different parts of Sikkim, which it intends to submit to the police as supporting evidence for investigation and necessary legal action.
The complaint was signed by PFA Sikkim General Secretary Rebina Rai and other representatives of the organisation. The submitted document bears an acknowledgement from Sadar Police Station, with handwritten references to a General Diary entry. However, the document does not independently establish that an FIR has been registered.
PFA Sikkim reiterated that government notifications and police directives must be effectively implemented on the ground rather than remaining limited to official documentation, stressing the need for preventive action before further incidents threaten human lives, animals, public property and the environment.

Government Employees in Custody Beyond 48 Hours Face Automatic Suspension, No Separate Order Required : SC
New Delhi, November 10 : The Supreme Court of India has clarified that a government employee arrested and kept in judicial custody for more than 48 hours is automatically placed under deemed suspension, without requiring a separate suspension order, under the applicable service rules.
A bench comprising Justices J.B. Pardiwala and Manmohan made the observation while restoring bail to Vishwajeet Singh, an administrator at Sadar Hospital in Samastipur, Bihar, accused of demanding a ₹4,000 bribe to release a contractual worker's pending wages of ₹36,421.
The Supreme Court overturned the Patna High Court's decision cancelling Singh's bail and expressed serious concern that he had been reinstated to the same hospital and position after his suspension was revoked.
The apex court directed the Bihar government to examine the reinstatement and take appropriate action in accordance with the law.
The ruling reinforces the principle of automatic suspension after more than 48 hours of custody, while distinguishing suspension from a finding of guilt.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh to Celebrate Diwali with Indian Army at Nathu La Along India-China Border
New Delhi, November 7 : Defence Minister Rajnath Singh is scheduled to visit Sikkim on November 8 to celebrate Diwali with Indian Army personnel stationed at Nathu La, one of India's strategically significant high-altitude border posts along the India-China frontier in East Sikkim.
The Defence Minister's visit will bring festive celebrations to soldiers deployed in the challenging Himalayan terrain, where troops remain on duty despite extreme weather conditions and difficult geographical circumstances. Singh is expected to interact with Army personnel, exchange Diwali greetings and acknowledge their commitment to safeguarding the nation's borders.
As part of his scheduled visit, Rajnath Singh will also pay homage to fallen soldiers at the Sherathang War Memorial, honouring the courage and sacrifices of Indian Armed Forces personnel who laid down their lives in the service of the nation.
Located at an altitude of approximately 14,000 feet, Nathu La is among the most strategically important mountain passes connecting India and China's Tibet Autonomous Region. The region holds considerable military and geographical significance due to its proximity to the international border.
The Defence Minister's Diwali visit is expected to highlight the dedication of Indian Army personnel serving in remote border areas, allowing troops stationed far from their families to share the festive occasion with the country's senior defence leadership.

Major Drug Bust in Siliguri: Nearly 2 Kg of Brown Sugar Seized at PC Mittal Bus Terminus, Three Arrested
Siliguri, November 6 : In a major crackdown on drug trafficking, Siliguri Metropolitan Police has achieved another significant success. Acting on a specific intelligence input, a joint team of Bhaktinagar Police Station and the Special Operations Group (SOG) conducted a raid at PC Mittal Bus Terminus and seized nearly 2 kg of suspected brown sugar. Three persons have been arrested in connection with the incident.
According to police sources, the joint team launched the operation following information about a suspected drug trafficking activity in the area. During the search operation at PC Mittal Bus Terminus, the police recovered a substantial quantity of brown sugar, estimated to be around 2 kg.
The three arrested accused include two residents of Malda district and one from Uttar Dinajpur district. Preliminary estimates suggest that the seized narcotics could be worth several crores of rupees in the international drug market.
Police have initiated an investigation to determine the source of the consignment and its intended destination. Investigators are also examining whether Siliguri was being used as a transit corridor for transporting narcotics to different parts of North Bengal and other nearby states and neighbouring countries.
The arrested individuals are being interrogated to identify the alleged masterminds behind the trafficking network and establish whether more people are involved in the racket. Police are also investigating the possibility of a larger organised drug trafficking network operating in the region.
It may be mentioned that Siliguri Metropolitan Police has been conducting continuous operations against drug trafficking across the region. The latest joint operation by Bhaktinagar Police and SOG is being viewed as another significant step in the ongoing crackdown on narcotics. However, the investigation is underway to uncover the wider network and establish the full extent of the operation.
