Cracking Down on Narcotics: Shopian's War Against Drug Networks

In Shopian district, Jammu and Kashmir, police have taken a firm stand against drug peddling by publicly displaying lists of suspected peddlers at police stations and posts, officials reported.

These lists, part of the Nasha Mukt Jammu and Kashmir Abhiyaan, are aimed at boosting public awareness and discouraging participation in narcotics activities in this south Kashmir region. Photographs of the individuals have also been exhibited in various police establishments.

According to a police spokesperson, this initiative is intended to signal zero tolerance towards narcotics while promoting transparency and encouraging community vigilance. This effort aligns with broader attempts to dismantle drug networks across the district.
