In a massive crackdown on the narcotics trade, the Baran Police in Rajasthan have delivered a crippling blow to the financial empire of drug cartels. Acting on a strict ‘Zero Tolerance’ policy, the police have executed an ‘Economic Surgical Strike’ under ‘Operation Vajra Prahar’, completely freezing the illicitly acquired assets of notorious drug smuggler Biramchand Lodha and his family members.

Invoking the stringent provisions of Section 68-F of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, the authorities have attached movable and immovable properties, alongside suspicious bank transactions, totaling a staggering ₹3.92 Crore. Following this action, the accused and his family are legally barred from using, selling, or transferring these properties.

The Objective of ‘Operation Vajra Prahar’

Baran Superintendent of Police (SP) Abhishek Andasu stated that ‘Operation Vajra Prahar’ was launched with a clear, dual-pronged strategy: to arrest drug traffickers and to systematically dismantle the financial networks built through illegal narcotics money. The police believe that paralyzing the economic backbone of these mafias is the most effective weapon to permanently eradicate the drug syndicate from the region.

Breakdown of the ₹3.92 Crore Frozen Assets

In-depth police investigations revealed that Biramchand Lodha (a resident of Dokari Khoh under the Sarthal police station jurisdiction), his wife Phulabai, his brother Rahul Lodha, and his sister-in-law Bhavana had heavily invested their drug money into real estate, luxury vehicles, and banking channels.

Legal Endorsement from New Delhi

To formalize this massive economic seizure, the Sarthal Police submitted a comprehensive dossier to the Competent Authority in New Delhi under Section 68-F of the NDPS Act. Following a rigorous two-month legal review, the judicial authority validated the freezing order proposed by the Baran Police.

In compliance with Order No. 1504 dated May 16, 2026, and under the directives of the District Collector of Baran, the Village Secretary of Digod Jagir and the Sarthal Police physically executed the property freezing operations on the ground on June 2.

The Smuggler’s Criminal Profile

Biramchand Lodha has been on the police radar for a long time. He has three serious cases registered against him under the NDPS Act, including one involving a ‘Commercial Quantity’ of narcotics.

• Previous Seizures: In past operations, police had confiscated 250 kg of poppy husk (doda choora) from his possession, valued at approximately ₹10 Lakh in the international market.
• A Baleno car worth ₹8 Lakh, used for smuggling activities, was also seized previously.

Commendation for the Special Task Force

This highly successful ‘economic surgical strike’ was a joint effort between the SP Office and the Sarthal Police Station. SP Andasu highly commended the special team involved, which included Police Inspector Vinod Kumar, Sarthal Station House Officer (SHO) Dharampal Singh, Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Vimlesh Mehta, and specially recognized the outstanding groundwork laid by Constables Ramesh Kumar, Kamlesh Kumar, and Jitendra.

3. Financial Aid and Rehabilitation: Compensation of ₹50 lakh for the grieving family, a compassionate government job, and safe housing provided in the Suroth township.
4. Self-Defense: Issuance of an arms license to the victim’s family for their protection against potential threats.

Assurance from the IG Amidst Protest Warnings

The delegation—which included village president Santram, Puran Thekedar, Tikam, Veer Singh, Sumran, and Ranjit—warned the administration that if no significant progress is made, they would escalate their protest into a mass movement.

Upon hearing the grievances, the IG of Bharatpur Range assured the villagers of a swift investigation. He reportedly instructed the local police to fast-track the arrests of the suspects mentioned in the FIR to restore public confidence in the law.
