Overview
- Srinagar Police attached immovable property worth about Rs 3.5 crore under Section 68-F of the NDPS Act, including houses and land in Kreshbal, Noorbagh tied to FIR 56/2025.
- The action follows Thursday’s demolition of three houses in Jammu’s Rajiv Nagar that officials said were built with drug money.
- District authorities also tore down more properties in the Miran Sahib belt, including homes linked to arrested brothers Sunny and Sandeep Sharma and a site tied to Dilbagh Singh, and cleared temporary hutments on state land.
- Police expanded field operations in the Valley by uprooting opium poppy in Pulwama, Ganderbal, Budgam and Kulgam and by issuing 24-hour ultimatums to landowners with NDPS cases filed when crops were not removed.
- Officials frame the crackdown as the 100-day Drug-Free J&K drive, with the lieutenant governor urging public backing and police asserting that narcotics proceeds fund terrorism and are pushed across the border from Pakistan.
