Police Crack Down on Drug Smugglers in Amritsar and Khanna

In Amritsar and Khanna, police have demolished drug smugglers' properties. According to officials, this operation has just begun and further such operations will continue in the future to tackle drug-related crimes. The sources said that for many years the accused had been indulging in drug trafficking and consequently, amassed crores of wealth by illegal means. So as a preventive measure, the properties belonging to them were identified and bulldozed by the authorities.

This step has been welcomed by the people as a strong measure toward justice. The state of Punjab has made a commitment to work in constructing a drug-free society; this operation is just part of that mission. The police officials warned that any person in drug dealings would meet dire consequences. Further, awareness campaigns are being run to make the youth aware of drug abuse and its consequences. Experts say such operations will break the confidence of drug smugglers and will greatly boost the fight against drugs in the state.

The hard-stop nature of administration is thought likely to have far-reaching consequences for the drug menace
