BJP's Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra Ends with Amit Shah Rally Highlighting Drug Crisis
The BJP's 13-day Nasha Mukt Punjab Yatra, covering 4,000 km and all 117 Assembly constituencies, culminates in a rally in Jalandhar addressed by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. The campaign highlights personal tragedies from drug addiction, with families sharing their stories and BJP leaders criticizing the Punjab government's handling of the drug menace. The BJP urges voters to support its efforts ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections, while the ruling AAP faces criticism for alleged inaction and police inefficiency. The yatra aims to mobilize public support against drugs as a social movement beyond politics.
