Punjab Police Launch ‘Mission Nishchay’
Punjab Police in association with the Border Security Force (BSF) and Village Defence Committees (VDCs) will carry out a one-week drive against drugs in Fazilka district. They will reach out to residents of as many as 42 villages along the India-Pakistan border to gather actionable intelligence about the demand and supply of drugs.
During the drive, named as ‘Mission Nishchay’, police officers will fan out in villages in Fazilka district from June 15 to 21 and interact with residents. The idea is to instil a sense of community participation among inhabitants of border villages as we make efforts to curb the menace of drugs. The focus on youth and women to gather actionable intelligence about the demand and supply of drugs. Of the 553-km-long Punjab border with Pakistan, 108 km is in Fazilka district.
Fazilka police had last month arrested seven persons, including two brothers, and seized around 5.5 kg of heroin being smuggled into India from across the border, six mobile phones and Rs 1.07 lakh drug money, and impounded a car and three motorcycles. Of the seven arrested persons, six were students, and five of them came in contact with each other at Jalalabad Sports Stadium where they used to prepare for army recruitment. It was during their interaction and preparations that they planned to smuggle heroin from Pakistan.
