Directs police to prepare \u2018top drug peddlers\u2019 lists<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leads Padyatra, vows no perpetrator will escape justice <\/strong><\/p>\n

Jammu, Apr 13: Directing police officials to prepare \u2018top drug peddlers\u2019 lists at all Police Stations, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Monday set a 30-day deadline to take decisive action to dismantle drug networks across Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n

Addressing a massive public rally at Sports Stadium Kathua, where he launched a people’s movement against narcotics under the Drug Free Jammu Kashmir campaign, LG Sinha, according to the news agency\u2014Kashmir News Observer (KNO) asked the police officials to prepare \u2018top drug peddlers\u2019 lists at all Police Stations and take decisive action to dismantle drug networks within 30 days. \u201cAdopt a focused and time-bound approach for complete elimination of drug syndicate,\u201d LG Sinha told the police officials.<\/p>\n

The Lieutenant Governor led a Padyatra from the Sports Stadium to Government Degree College, Kathua, joined by thousands of citizens, public representatives, senior officials, civil society members, social activists, NGOs, women, students and various stakeholders, all united under a shared resolve to make Jammu Kashmir Nasha Mukt.<\/p>\n

WARNS DRUG SYNDICATES OF IMPENDING CRACKDOWN<\/p>\n

Warning drug syndicates of an impending crackdown, the Lieutenant Governor stated that a groundbreaking Standard Operating Procedure, recently notified, will ruthlessly crush smugglers by revoking their passports, driving licenses, Aadhaar cards, and arms licenses.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder the NDPS Act, we will confiscate all movable and immovable assets, freeze bank accounts, and launch exhaustive financial probes. I want to assure the people of Jammu Kashmir that no perpetrator will escape justice,\u201d the Lieutenant Governor said.<\/p>\n

He called upon women’s self-help groups to form a Women Vigilance Squad for monitoring the drug abuse cases and informing senior officials about the activities in their areas.<\/p>\n

LG Sinha said, \u201cPeople say, this isn’t my problem. This mindset must go. We must remember that true prosperity stems not just from wealth, but vigilant and collective resolve.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cThe Government and society must unite for surveillance, rally anti-drug support, and cultivate drug-free villages and towns. We have empowered our police and agencies with full authority to dismantle drug syndicates.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Lieutenant Governor said, \u201cA youth who grasps life’s purpose becomes our strongest weapon against drugs.\u201d<\/p>\n

He entrusted upon the NGOs and activists to drive grassroots efforts and feedback.<\/p>\n

DRUG-FREE JAMMU KASHMIR WILL EMERGE FROM COLLECTIVE ACTION<\/p>\n

He said, \u201cA drug-free Jammu Kashmir will emerge not from one person, but from collective action. Society must realize that drugs don’t just kill individuals-they erode entire villages’, wards\u2019 and cities\u2019 honor and destiny.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLet’s build a J&K where our youth’s energy illuminates the world, not destroys itself. Let us confront this challenge with unyielding resolve,\u201d the Lieutenant Governor said.<\/p>\n

The Lieutenant Governor called upon every citizen, every Kathua family, to rise and unite against drug abuse.\u00a0 \u201cI ignite a people’s revolution to eradicate drugs from every panchayat, every alley, every family in Kathua district. This is no dream, it’s my unbreakable pledge,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

WE HAVE CRAFTED WELL-PLANNED 100-DAY ROADMAP<\/p>\n

The Lieutenant Governor said that our future won’t be scripted in documents but forged through decisions of this people’s movement in the next three months.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have crafted a well-planned 100-day roadmap- six phased steps fueling systematic resolve. Month one ignites awareness and mobilization; month two deepens community\/family penetration; month three cements sustainability,\u201d he said, adding, \u201cNext three months won’t just run a campaign but they will sow seeds for lasting change in J&K. The campaign’s cornerstone is compassionate rehabilitation. We must shift our mindset: addicts are patients and they need our help and support.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Lieutenant Governor stressed the need for a more effective, accessible, humane rehabilitation centers where lives are reclaimed. \u201cWe will crack down hard on traffickers and criminals, but those trapped need empathy and mercy. If a youth strays, we help him recover,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor administered an \u2018Anti-Drug Pledge\u2019 and launched the Nasha Mukt Jammu Kashmir Anthem. The event also featured powerful awareness video by DIPR and programs, where renowned artists and students used Nukkad Nataks, cultural performances, songs, and poetry to mobilize the public against the menace of narcotics.
