Moga Authorities Launch Campaign to Clear and Transform Drug HotspotsPreviousNext

The Moga police and district administration have initiated efforts to address drug-related issues by demolishing abandoned buildings used as drug dens and transforming around 20 verified drug hotspots. Actions include cleaning, repairing structures, installing lighting, and increasing police patrolling. Authorities have urged property owners and local communities to report suspicious activities. The initiative follows concerns over health risks, local crime, and past corruption allegations involving police officers in drug cases within the district.
