Punjab Cracks Down Hard: 113 Drug Dealers Caught
Massive Statewide Operation Nets Huge Drug Seizure in 24 Hours…..
In a major breakthrough against narcotics, Punjab Police has launched a powerful statewide crackdown, arresting 113 drug traffickers in a single day. The move marks a significant step in the state’s mission to become drug-free and has sent a strong message to those operating illegal drug networks.
The Punjab Director General of Police (DGP) revealed that simultaneous raids were carried out across multiple districts over the last 24 hours. These operations led to the seizure of large quantities of narcotics, including heroin, opium, poppy husk, intoxicant pills, and syrups.
Police teams reportedly raided more than 100 locations based on intelligence inputs and surveillance. Many of the arrested individuals were already known to law enforcement and had pending cases. Several of them are believed to be part of organized inter-state supply chains.
This intensive drive was met with some resistance in local pockets, but the police maintained restraint and executed their operations efficiently and without escalation. All seized substances have been sent for forensic examination to determine origin and purity.
Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann commended the police for their efforts and reiterated the government’s commitment to cleanse the state of drugs. “This is not just a law and order issue—it is about saving generations,” he said in a public statement. He further urged the police to continue such operations with greater intensity.
The public has welcomed this major move, particularly families and community leaders who have long been struggling with the rising influence of drugs on youth. Many expressed hope that sustained efforts like these will finally bring a lasting change in the state’s battle against addiction.
Investigations are also underway to trace the broader network, including suppliers, transport routes, and international linkages. Sources indicate that the operation was supported by detailed data analysis and community tip-offs.
This massive crackdown proves that Punjab’s resolve to combat drugs is not just on paper—it is being executed on the ground.
