EAGLE Raids Ganja Hotspot in Kancharapalem, One Nabbed



The Elite Anti-Narcotics Group for Law Enforcement (EAGLE) carried out a raid at a ganja hotspot in Kancharapalem, Visakhapatnam, on October 6, 2026, with one person being nabbed during the operation. The raid is part of the State’s continuing efforts to identify and act against locations associated with illegal drug activity. WeRIndia

EAGLE is the Andhra Pradesh Government’s specialised anti-narcotics organisation working with police units to tackle drug trafficking and substance abuse. The agency has been conducting intelligence-led enforcement operations across the State. EAGLE Andhra Pradesh

The latest action adds to intensified anti-drug enforcement in Visakhapatnam, where police have also been using surprise raids, surveillance and other measures to target drug-related activity. India Live

Note: The accessible sources confirm the raid and one arrest, but I could not independently verify additional details such as the accused person's name, quantity of ganja seized or the exact location within Kancharapalem. I have therefore not added those details.
