Ambala Authorities Seal 12 Residences Linked to Drug Offenses in Deha ColonyPreviousNext

Ambala Police and the Municipal Corporation sealed 12 residential properties in Deha Colony during a joint operation targeting the illegal drug trade. Notices to vacate had been issued earlier, but occupants did not comply. Most property owners face multiple criminal cases under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act, including Vicky alias Gattu, who has 42 cases. Several women in the area also face NDPS-related charges. The operation involved heavy police deployment and a duty magistrate to maintain order.
