Srinagar, Apr 14: Delivering a strong message against the growing drug menace, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Srinagar, Dr G V Sundeep Chakravarthy, on Tuesday announced a “double-intensity” crackdown on drug peddlers and the wider narcotics network, calling for greater public participation to make the fight effective and result-oriented.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of Baisakhi celebrations in Srinagar, Dr Sundeep said the police have devised an action-oriented strategy aimed at targeting not just drug users or small-time peddlers, but the entire ecosystem sustaining the trade.

“Our aim is to hit the drug ecosystem. This is not just a fight of the police but of the entire society and every citizen,” he said, adding that while anti-drug operations have been underway, the coming phase will see renewed and intensified action against suppliers and networks.

He urged people to come forward with information, assuring that the identity of informants would be kept strictly confidential and that they would be suitably rewarded. “We need mohalla-level cooperation. It’s not that the public is not cooperating, but we need more support so that our fight becomes truly result-oriented,” he added.

Dr Sundeep said the intensified campaign is part of the broader ‘Nasha Mukt J&K’ initiative, envisioned by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha. He noted that the latest anti-drug campaign was formally launched on April 13 in coordination with the district administration Srinagar.

Amid the serious messaging on drugs, the SSP also highlighted the spirit of unity and harmony witnessed during Baisakhi celebrations in the city. Extending his greetings to the Sikh fraternity, he said the festival carries a message of brotherhood and communal harmony.

“I extend my heartfelt wishes to the Sikh fraternity on the occasion of Baisakhi. I am happy to see Muslim brothers and members of the Sikh fraternity celebrating together. This is the true essence of our society,” he said.

Reaffirming the administration’s commitment to maintaining peace, Dr Sundeep said all efforts are being made to ensure that every festival is celebrated peacefully in Srinagar.
