Jammu and Kashmir Police Arrest Over 4,000 in Anti-Drug Campaign Since April
Since April, Jammu and Kashmir police have arrested over 4,000 individuals linked to drug trafficking and registered more than 3,200 drug-related cases under the 'Nasha Mukt Abhiyan' campaign. The drive, launched by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, aims to reduce substance abuse among youth. Authorities report leading India in property attachments worth Rs 138 crore and cash seizures exceeding Rs 80 lakh. While the campaign has achieved 170 convictions and disposed of around 2,500 cases, some allegations of disproportionate targeting within the region have been noted.
