Those who come out from the drug habit deserve respect in the society. The DGP appreciated the staff for ensuring effective functioning of the centre. He assured all possible help from Police Headquarters for further improving the facilities in the centre.
The DGP said that JK Police besides taking care of the drug affected persons was working hard to stop the spread of drug menace in J&. “J&K Police in recent past seized a huge quantity of drug consignments sent from across the border aimed to harm our youth and generate funds for the (militant) groups,” he said.
During the current year, the DGP was informed that a total of 2451 OPD and 247 IPD drug affected persons have been treated in police drug de-addiction centres in the J&K.
The DGP was accompanied by ADGP Headquarters, PHQ, M.K Sinha, ADGP Kashmir, Vijay Kumar, DIG CKR, Sujit Kumar, SSP Srinagar and other jurisdictional officers.
