RPF’s Vigilance Ensures Election Integrity in Haryana and Jammu & Kashmir, Seizing Illegal Goods Worth ₹12.86 Crores

New Delhi (PIB): On September 5, 2024, a tip-off from a reliable informant led the Railway Protection Force (#RPF) to launch a carefully coordinated operation at New Delhi Railway Station.

The RPF Team was on high alert as they inspected several incoming trains. As they searched the coaches, they uncovered 24 suspicious packages from four different trains.

What initially appeared to be routine parcels turned out to contain a surprising haul: 498 grams of #gold bars, 365 kilograms of #silver, and ₹85.72 lakhs in unaccounted #cash. The total value of the seized goods was estimated at ₹4.01 crores.

Working in collaboration with the Income Tax Department, the RPF team carefully documented and secured the items for further investigation, marking the operation as a major success in curbing illegal activities on the #railways in the times of Assembly Elections in Haryana.
