In a sweeping operation conducted by the Margherita sub-divisional administration and the Margherita Police, authorities raided the residence of prominent coal trader Ron Lungsang, revealing a shocking sum exceeding Rs 3 crore. The raid, targeting Lungsang’s house in the Tikak area of Ledo, was launched based on crucial intelligence gathered by law enforcement agencies.

The meticulously planned operation commenced at 2 am, with authorities honing in on Lungsang’s suspected involvement in illicit coal activities.

This raid represents a crucial step in the ongoing endeavors to clamp down on illegal coal mining activities in the region and hold accountable those responsible for perpetrating such unlawful acts.

The substantial sum of over Rs 3 crore uncovered during the raid underscores the magnitude of the alleged illicit activities being carried out by individuals within the coal trading sector. As investigations progress, authorities are expected to delve deeper into Lungsang’s business dealings and ascertain any potential connections to illegal mining operations.
