State Bureau, Naiduniya, Bhopal. Major information has come to light during the interrogation of Amit Chaturvedi and Sanyal Bane, accused of manufacturing 907 kg MD drugs in Bagroda industrial area near Bhopal. He has told that earlier he wanted to set up a factory in Indore but there was a high possibility of getting caught there.
In fact, due to opium producing districts like Mandsaur, Neemuch and Ratlam being near Indore, police and other agencies remain relatively more alert about drugs. In this area, action is taken from time to time against drug dealers, that is why he considered Bhopal suitable.
couldn’t make it thrice

After this, he understood the intricacies of the technology from his other colleagues engaged in this work and was successful in making it. He also told the workers in the factory in Bhopal that in what quantity and with what ingredients should be mixed to make MD drugs.
