Amritsar Police Collaborate with Gurdwaras to Warn Parents on Youth Drug Risks
Amritsar police have partnered with gurdwaras to raise awareness among parents and youth about drug abuse and criminal exploitation, especially targeting teenagers aged 16-17. Announcements through gurdwara loudspeakers in border villages urge vigilance over children's social media use and behavior. Authorities warn that criminal networks, including cross-border handlers, recruit vulnerable youth via social media for illegal activities. The campaign aims to involve community leaders and expand outreach to schools and public areas ahead of festive seasons.
