Jammu, April 14 -- The lieutenant governor (LG) Manoj Sinha on Monday directed the Jammu and Kashmir Police to prepare a list of top drug peddlers in all the police stations and ensure action to dismantle drug networks within 30 days.

The campaign was launched by LG Sinha from Jammu city on April 11.
He further said that a groundbreaking standard operating procedure, recently notified, will ruthlessly crush smugglers by revoking their passports, driving licenses, Aadhaar cards, and arms licenses.

He also called upon women's self-help groups to form a "women vigilance squad" for monitoring the drug abuse cases. "Next three months won't just run an anti-drugs campaign but they will sow seeds for a lasting change in J&K," he said.

Let us confront this challenge with unyielding resolve," he said. The LG further said our future won't be scripted in documents but forged through decisions of this people's movement in the next three months. "We have crafted a well-planned 100-day roadmap- six phased steps. Month one ignites awareness and mobilization; month two deepens community/family penetration; month three cements sustainability," he added....
