Under the supervision of RPF Post in-charge Rakesh Mohan and led by officer Balbir Prasad, the team conducted intensive checks on platforms and in the station premises.

During the operation, the squad detained Adarsh Kumar after finding his behaviour suspicious.
A search of his bag uncovered the liquor stash. Unable to provide a convincing explanation, he was handed over to the Excise Department, Jamshedpur, along with the seized bottles.
Officials said liquor smuggling attempts typically rise during festive periods, and strict checking drives will continue to prevent such activities.
