Sopore, May 31, 2026:
As part of the ongoing 100-Day Nasha Mukt Jammu & Kashmir Abhiyaan, Sopore Police carried out a series of enforcement and community outreach activities today to strengthen the fight against drug abuse and promote drug-free communities.

Sopore Police conducted thorough inspections of chemist and druggist shops in Chankhan and Naseem Bagh areas falling within the jurisdiction of Police Station Tarzoo. The drive aimed to ensure strict compliance with the provisions of the Drugs & Cosmetics Act and prevent the illegal sale or diversion of psychotropic and habit-forming drugs. Sale records, prescriptions, and other relevant documents were scrutinized, while shop owners were sensitized about their legal responsibilities and the consequences of violations.

In continuation of the campaign, a village-level awareness programme was organized at Aalibagh, Hygam under the banner of the Nasha Mukt Jammu & Kashmir Abhiyaan. The programme witnessed active participation from Numberdars, Chowkidars, Panchayat members, and other respected citizens of the area.

During the programme, participants were sensitized about the social, health, and economic consequences of drug abuse. Community members were encouraged to remain vigilant, report suspicious activities, and support efforts aimed at counseling, rehabilitation, and reintegration of affected youth. The importance of keeping villages and local communities free from the menace of drugs was also emphasized.

Sopore Police remains committed to a two-pronged strategy under the 100-Day Nasha Mukt Jammu & Kashmir Abhiyaan—strict enforcement against drug peddlers and traffickers, coupled with sustained public awareness and community participation.

The public has been urged to actively cooperate with law enforcement agencies in the collective effort to build a safer, healthier, and drug-free society.
