Guwahati, Feb 5 (PTI) Yaba tablets worth Rs 2 crore have been seized and one person has been apprehended in Assam's South Salmara district, Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Wednesday.

Acting on a tip-off, police seized 7,800 Yaba tablets from the residence of a person who was subsequently arrested.
