Jammu Administration Tears Down Properties Tied to Alleged Drug Networks in Bishnah

Overview

• Authorities carried out demolition operations at Chak Waziru in the Bishnah area on Wednesday, removing multiple residential properties that officials say belonged to alleged drug operatives.
• Officials identified several targets by name, including Falla Gujjar, Bashir Ahmad, Gulzar Ahmed, Farman Ali and Fareeda Bibi, and said the properties were linked to long-running narcotics cases.
• Police and district officials said the actions were executed under security, in the presence of senior civil and police officers, and followed legal procedures as part of an administration-led campaign.
• A police spokesman said many of the accused face multiple FIRs and cases under the NDPS Act and that the demolished properties were assessed at over Rs 6 crore in total value.
• Officials framed the drive as a deterrent designed to disrupt drug trafficking networks and restore public order, and earlier enforcement in the campaign included the demolition of a relative's house after an arrest.
