J&K Anti‑Drug Drive Reports Over 1,000 Arrests, 923 FIRs and Large Seizures

The administration says the campaign is cutting alleged narco‑financing of terrorism and will expand government-run rehabilitation across every district.

Overview

  • The 100-day Nasha Mukt Jammu Kashmir Abhiyaan, launched on April 11, has registered 923 FIRs and led to about 1,018 arrests and roughly 55 detentions under PIT-NDPS, officials said after Monday’s public rally.
  • Enforcement agencies reported seizures of as much as 341 kilograms of narcotics, including roughly 12 kg of heroin and tens of thousands of psychotropic tablets, and said intelligence-led raids identified thousands of suspects.
  • Authorities have used administrative tools to disrupt the trade, cancelling about 668 driving licences, recommending revocation of 124 passports, suspending chemist licences and initiating attachment or demolition of drug-linked properties.
  • Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha has pushed public mobilisation through padyatras and awareness drives and pledged to set up modern, government-run de‑addiction and rehabilitation centres in every district while Tele‑MANAS and local counsellors provide support.
  • Officials frame the drive as both a public health push and a security measure to choke alleged narco‑terror funding, and they say operations and asset actions will continue with follow-up enforcement and regulatory steps.
